Our Game Interface
At Gutshot Poker, we believe it's good to have a lot of cooks in your kitchen. That's why our gaming software, tools and features are the creation of a team of poker players and video game experts. The result, we hope, is a friendly, entertaining and more rewarding place to play.
Game Tables
Welcome to our Gutshot Poker tables, for ring game and tournament play. One of the first things you'll notice on our ring game or tournament tables, is the large action buttons. This is the main part of the action section; however there are more tools and features available to you depending on the game format you're playing - No Limit, Limit or Fixed Limit.
Avatars
We allow you to choose from a number of realistic characters when seated at a gaming table. In fact, they are quite realistic and move with your actions including a 'hands at their side' action should you sit out, or a 'lean forward' while you're in the game.
If you're playing online to avoid people, Gutshot also offers the option to remove characters from game play as well as an optional 'simple' background.
Action Buttons
One of the first thing you'll likely notice, and likely the most important game interface took, are the large action buttons. These are large buttons displayed in multiple colors. When it's your turn to act, simply select the button that describes how you'd like to act - Fold, Check or Bet. If you're choosing to Bet, be sure to read below on your options should you be playing a pot limit or no limit game.
Pre-Action Buttons
When you have a turn coming, but it's not yet your turn to act, the Pre-Action Buttons will appear. Clicking these will toggle an action to be performed automatically when it's your turn.
Slide Raiser Bar
When raising the bet, there are a few more options available to you. Our three quick raise buttons, allow you to raise ½ pot, the entire pot amount or go all-in, depending on your game format (i.e. Pot Limit or No Limit).
If you choose to change the amount of the standard raise amounts, our slider bar is your ticket to increasing the action! Simply use your mouse to pull the bar to the right, to increase the bet. If you have an exact amount in mind, you may also choose to simply type the amount in directly to the white text box.
