New in Version 5.0

We receive feedback from our customers with great ideas to make Poker Tournament Manager even better.  We listened, and have added the following new features that were most requested.

Upgrade to Version 5.0...

• New Functionality
• New Bounty wizard to either automatically assign a bounty to all players, or to prompt you when entering players if you would like an automatic bounty added.  (Deluxe only)
• New Point Formula wizard to give you the flexibility, in addition to having points paid out for winners, to also have points awarded to all players automatically for participating, and to have points awarded by a formula based on the number of players awarded in reverse order. (Deluxe only)
• The new “Reminders Wizard” lets you set reminders during your tournament.  Choose from preset reminders like “Change Card Decks” or enter your own custom reminders.  You can have the game pause until you OK the reminder or have it continue and just remind you.
• Added more customizable word editing features to the Rules and Custom Message.  You can now set text to any font, and any font size within the text itself, set to Bold, Italic, Underline and control the alignment of the text for better reading.
• Added handy new Hand Timer with a hot key so you can put a player taking too long on a timer to complete the hand.  The default number of minutes is customizable.
• 2 new sound options with added ability to set custom sound at start of a break to better notify players when breaks are starting (or you can keep the same notification as a level change as in previous versions), and new custom sound for when a player has to rebuy (have some fun with this one!)
• Use the optional new Toolbar in the tournament window for commonly used functions like starting and stopping the clock.  You can also drag the toolbar to any location on the screen to your preference.

• New Convenience Features

• Added easier tourney level setup functionality including being able to insert and remove levels from the setup grid.
• Added more graphics to user interface to help non-English speaking managers and players with ease of use.
• Added Chip Preview in Tournament setup.
• Added toggle menu and button for quickly scrolling through screens in the tournament window.
