Default Question about UB Software

Does anyone know if its possible to display the bet/pot amounts?
And for the record, I hate UB. As soon as I clear my bonus, I'm out of there.

Unfortunately I didn't realise this until it was too late.
I was looking for a new site to play at because the Stars software keeps crashing my PC. So I came to this site, checked out the reviews and saw that UB was listed as #2....not too sure why.

i love UB, the tourneys there have been really good to me, but the bonus definately sucks and the players are very good for the most part.

i don't like the ring games there, either. maybe try some tourneys, that may change your mind. there are some really good ones at like 1am - 2am that don't get a huge crowd, but still have a guaranteed prize pool.

UB has excellent software (ok, when it works), aside from the lag in the lobby is worse than Stars. The games are not ultra soft, but they are very good. The GUI is one of the easiest on the eyes for all the sites. And the Hand History setup, while tedious at first for PT users, actually has huge advantages that far outweigh any negatives after you get to used to it.

Yes, the Bonus is VERY slow, BUT, they are frequent and generous. I have 4x-5x my Bankroll pending in bonus on UB, and It's my HomeBase site when I am not clearing any other bonuses since it doesn't expire. I just consider it to be a form of Rakeback since they release the bonus earned after each session. And now you can earn Bonus without even playing any real money games, you just have to win Bonus points in SNG's.

UB's my favorite site, but the games have become tougher as of late because of the insane amount of bonuses flying around elsewhere. The speed is what I really love and extremely easy on the eyes.

what do you mean?
if you put your mouse over the bet, it will display the amount.
i always putting mpouse over the pot, ppls bets etc... to see the amounts.
if you do not like this, go options>>>chat>> and enable full dealer chat. this will display all the action in the chat box so you will see how much every one bet.

once you do that, go back to table options and click "save settings as default"

also the UB bonus segnificantly easy to clear; its like rakeback, it automatically transfers to $. furthermore, compared ot other most sites, its extreamly easy to clear @ low stakes such as nl 25, 10nl etc...

UB = the best site/software. ir rarely freezes now. like almost never.
also the lobby still sucks ass interms of updating info. how ever, i find it is easiest to navigate.

I just want it to show the amount next to the chips when people bet. I know you can do this in the Stars' software and I just wanted to know if it was possible on UB.

And I'm getting more used to UB, but here's my beefs:

- You can't easily display the bet/pot amounts on the table. This is making it harder for me to calculate odds because I have to hover over the bet amounts to figure everything out.
- You cannot extend your time to act.
- When you re-raise or raise from the blinds, it adds the amount to what you've already bet. For example, if BB is 100 and I say raise 300, it raises to 400. I'm used to stars where you enter in the raise to amount.
- Lobby is slow to update.
- Doesn't seem like there as many people playing the multi-table SnGs.
- I can't find the NLHE ring games.
- No personalised icons.

Thats all I can think of so far.
