Software Updates
New Features
Reward program enhancements in the client
Rewards status and Rewards personal page in the main lobby
The main lobby has been further enhanced with new added features so players can keep up to date with their reward status. Your reward status will be permanently displayed underneath the cashier button in the main lobby. Clicking on your status opens your rewards personal page where you are able to check your Reward program status, Reward Points balance, how close you are to reaching the next status and much more.

Status Progress Bar on the table
To better track your rewards status progress we have added a new progress bar to Ring Games.
If you have an active pending bonus you can control which progress bar you wish to have displayed on the table (bonus progress bar, Status progress bar or neither of them) by going to the settings option and marking the bar you wish to see during play.
Multi tabling enhancements
New queuing mechanism while multi tabling
The new queuing mechanism that accompanies multi tabling means that playing 6, 8, 10 and even 16 tables simultaneously becomes much easier. The new system puts each table that requires an action into a chronological queue. When a table requires an action it will wait in line until you attend to it and will pop under your current active table. Once you have performed an action on the first table from the queue, the table will be sent to the end of the line and the next table that requires an action will pop up for you to make a decision and so on.
Open Identical table feature
The new “Open Identical” feature allows players to open an additional Ring Game or Sit & Go tournament with the same specification as the previous table on which you were playing, without the need to go through the lobby.
All you are required to do is click the “Open Identical” button on the table and the system will try to find you an exact Ring Game / Sit & Go tournament that has open seats.
Open identical Sit & Go from the tournament lobby
If you missed the registration for a Sit & Go or have seen a running Sit & Go tournament that you wish to participate in with the same tournament specification, a new button is now available to save you the hassle of searching for the same tournament from the lobby.
