Please use this thread to discuss any questions or queries you may have regarding using the Betfair Poker Software.
I"m sure between all of the APAT forum users, we should be able to answer most stuff.
This will also make a good place for the Betfair Poker team to pick up feedback from our members.
This is a badbeat free zone. ;) Please go and spend your 50p elsewhere if you have a story to tell. ;D

It"s a good job we have Ger with his technical knowledge to sort these problems.
I guarantee he can point the finger at "user error" for every question anyone posts about it being the software. ;D

I"ve just opened a betfair account and tried to deposit funds using a paysafe card but betfair never displays the page on which you enter your details so I have been unable to deposit funds. The "contact us" page is useless as it just suggests answers but never lets you actually "contact us". Anyone else having similar problems or any suggestions? Cheers.

Any Leigh.....and is there any way u can go to a 4-colour deck ?
I cant see ANYWHERE to change anything to be honest......but as Matt will tell you, I am a thick Yam-Yam !!

We"ll be introducing a friendly Betfair representative into the community from next week guys, so I"m sure he will be able to respond on a lot of the general queries.
APAT structures will be as per last season and we"ll post them up ahead of events.

TY guys

There seems to be alot of (I would say misunderstangings) about the the sats that are coming up and maybe in the future too. So if anyone from Betfair or the admin read this they may put it too them that it might be easier if we had our own lobby for the Forth coming games like we had on BlusSq. It was easy access and quick to get to the games you knew excatly were to go and what was happening rather than having to scroll through the whole lobby.
Its only an idea

I was looking for a convenient way to make a standard 3 x BB raise, but so far can only manage this when I type the amount in. Im lazy so instead I have been using raise 3/4 pot or raise Pot. I"m I also as thick as a Yam-Yam?.......What is a Yam-Yam??

Have you sorted the problem? the same happened to me...
http://poker.betfair.com/ (http://poker.betfair.com/) click "deposit" in the top right of the screen. And it should be sorted.

I have answered on a different thread, and it worked.. try going to betfair.com and logging in as normal as if you were going onto the sportsbook section, and go into your account from there and try and deposit.

Is this possible? I have a friend who wants to play APAT and Betfair games but doesn"t wish to deposit by card or have any "gambling" transactions coming out of their accounts. Using cash would be perfect. Leigh, Des, is this possible?

Adam - Your friend should open a separate account which you they can litter freely with gambling transactions, while anyone reviewing your their main account would be totally unaware of your their gambling issues.
-
It really is a serious issue in Ireland. The banks will refuse to renew your credit card when the time comes if it shows too many "gambling" transactions. They"ve been cracking down on it big time in the past year or two. So much so that I do what I can to deposit in any way except card (if possible) to throw them off the scent. Hope the paysafe option works as that"s what I"m intending to use with Betfair.

New site = must deposit. Bad beat really. lol

i do like betfair but have to agree that the raising options could be easier/better !!!

I eventually managed to deposit funds using a paysafe card so it is possible although you need untold patience at times.......

I use Neteller (https://www.neteller.com/home/index.jsf) to deposit with Betfair. You can set this up as a payment from your bank account.
All your bank sees is a payment to an online transaction house which doesn"t count as a "gambling" transaction.
I believe that they also offer a "Virtual Card" (http://www.netpluscards.com/global)for one-off transactions.

As above + I have the card so you can use it as per any debit card, they have droped the monthly non usage fee too!!!

I used Paypal. Delighted to see this option, all poker sites should be so sensible. But maybe the payment comes straight from your bank, I"m not sure.

Welcome Dave to the APAT forum.

Welcome to the forum Dave and congratulations on a great deal with APAT.
Are you also welcoming proposals for improvements to the software?
I would propose you start a thread for this but any post simply slagging off the software should be removed IMO.

Hope your inbox is set to max storage -- LOL -- welcome Dave

Ok, having played some games, here are what I see as shortcomings on the BetFair poker client...
- Blinds structure - When in a game, cannot for the life of me find a blind structure for that game. When playing in a game, we see a countdown clock for the game we are in, but have no idea what the next level is, or, if the end of this level is a break.
- The folded cards - When you fold, sometimes (cant me more than 25% of the time) you cards shrink smaller and stay above your name, but mostly they do not.
- A friend of mine tells me she cannot see a button at the top left for "Last Hand".
- Tournamen list from the main lobby - Sort by name and you expect that all the games whose description starts with APAT xxxxxxxx, come together... They just dont... makes it dificult finding the games we want... Also, similarly, sort by numbers of players registered in games, sorts it say from 0 thru to whatever high number... but if you scroll down past say 250, there are more zeros thru to 250, and then further down, some more... sorting is all wrong and makes it hard...
- The wierdest thing I see about the software is looking at the game lobby you are playing in your table goes to the background, and you can hear it playing, but you are reading the lobby. It is a very wierd way of playing as you suddenly realise you are missing hands. It is possible to get a different window by opening 2 windows, or maybe viewing a player at another table and then switching to lobby view, but it all seems wrong. Why doesnt it just have one window for the lobby and one for the game table as standard.
- Outstanding Balances - I click the button left of the main lobby " My Account "... I go to a web page, and have to login, and get a whole list of pages. 1st page "Account Summary"... Never works for me, always fails, so I go onto one of the other pages and then go back to the Account Summary, and it works, but, quite often it tells me I have zero available to bet, I know this is wrong, I go to "Account Statement" I see I have plenty of funds, so I go back to the summary and it tells me same number I just saw in the statement. Also, when we register for a tournament, why cant it tell us there that we have say £50 total, and we are spending £10, so new balance = £40... The software MUST have gone away to check the balances anyway to make sure we have the funds, so why cant it display that?
- Friends - I have added a friend in the "Find Players" section... I can see that he is playing in a particular tournament.. I would like to go and see how he is doing, I would like to go right to his game as it is listed on the screen in front of me, how hard is that to figure out, I expected to double click the game, but after trying lost of things, found a teeny little icon to the left of the game, and it took me there, but, as similar to table lobby, took me to the game, but, its put the game in my game window and its a trip and a half to get back to having one window with friends game and one window with my game.
- While viewing friends, the "Last Game" button not visible. Not a necessary item, but dont understand why not visible to observers.
- Betfair Poker Buddy - I see this link inside the page for preferences - I click it and get a HTML page opened. shows me the betfair top and left menu but in the main window - Page Not Found (404). It is supposed to show me the hand history on there.
- Are betfair gonna do a sportbook on the regged players at the APAT events?
If I think of any will add a new post, :-)
-
- A friend of mine tells me she cannot see a button at the top left for "Last Hand".
Click Preferences and under Hand History ensure "Save hand history" is checked. When at a table the Last Hand button will be there.

Okay played a couple of the sats and seem to be having similar problems with the software that it keeps freezing up my laptop. I normally play on other sites with no trouble and whilst playing the sites i had very few tables open. Betfair seems to be making my pc work its arse off from the sounds coming from it tbh. Doubt there is very little you can do about this Dave but thought I would bring up the issue. Will see how we it goes this weekend but don"t think I fancy playing on somewhere if this is going to be a regular occurence.
Another thing which again I am sure you will probably tell me is my pc etc but here goes anyway: I first started playing on betfair a few years ago but one of the reasons I left was that i seemed to get Virus alerts regularly when I was playing on the site. I have had no trouble since but subsequently got my email account hacked a few days ago. May be coincidence I know but would be interested in your view.
p.s. apologies to anyone who received the Viagra emails :P
A last question Dave: Has Joe Legge explained the Fiery Dragon to you yet?
-
I have to say that I was really surprised to find that the look and feel of the software, along with how the tables and game lobbies work, had not changed at all in the 2 years since I last logged on. It"s just so clunky. It was a jaw dropping moment to still be asked the "older computers"/"most computers" question. Most other poker sites have changed out of all recognition just in the last year never mind 2 years. Also agree that it uses a lot of pc resource, much more so than other sites.
I was also surprised to find $70 in the account - I must have been really peed off to leave that there!
I would like to see Betfair listen and make changes to their site whilst they have a semi captive audience in the APAT community. There"s a lot of us and that could be very valuable resource for what works and what doesn"t. Given that Betfair is proprietary software they must have much more control over getting it changed than the skins. Fingers crossed.

good post, my thoughts exactly, I think we would happily help Betfair progress

I was going to deposit to play Saturdays tourney but,
Just tried to log in and it says my account has been suspended. I checked my emails and it says its suspended because they cant verify my age, (I hav"nt been asked for id since I was 14, Im 40 lol).
Email says I can,
1- log in and verify age in "my account", (but I cant log in cause its suspended),
2- you can deposit by credit card as you have to be 18 to do this, (I had already done this as I played the 10pound sattelite)
3- send a copy of my driving licence or passport, (I wont be doing this under any circumstance).
seems Im drawing dead, wp betfair.
-
Okay played a bit of cash and one tourney on Betfair, been away a lot! Any way these are my first thoughts and observations -
Why can"t I get the site to fill my screen, it goes across the middle filling two thirds of the screen?
Why when I fold sometimes it keeps my cards on show, and some times they disappear?
Why is hand history so difficult to access?
Why is there no structure info on the tourneys and SNGs?
The Lobby is very jumbled
The actual playing table is very dull and lifeless, I actually found myself playing on BSQ last night again, as I prefer the look and feel of the site.
Aces don"t win when AIPF!! :"(
That it for now I am sure there will be more, cheers.

When it was the click fest the other night i was not able to access the internet, so i left my password with a friend back home and he tried to enter me in, but for some reason it said not enough funds in my account, so he couldnt buy me in. Ive just looked now and i had the £75 all along, has this happenend to anyone else?
Another weird problem is that i cant deposit more funds in now, it says "navagation to webpage canceled, retry web address" Has this happenend to anyone else here?

The buy-in was $120 (not £75) as Betfair work in that currency. It"s possible the actual amount to be paid was $77-$80 depending on the conversion rate and if you missed it by a few cents it would say that you don"t have enough funds.
On the access issue, go to the page and if you get the same problem, press Ctrl & F5 at the same time to clear your browsers cache. Other than that, ring Betfair support...I hear they are pretty good.
Finally, you really shouldn"t be giving out passwords no matter how much you trust someone...[/shudder]
-
oh , ok thanks, this clears up the funds issue.
BTW ive just looked this up. £75 is only $114. And to get to $120 we have to pump in £79. So where does the extra £4 from each player go. The people who cash in the live events will have paid $120 online, but will be getting money back in £££s. 100 players = £400 pound in exchange rates going somewhere.
-
just wondered what you all thought of the betfair poker software given were going to be using it for the forseeable future
is there any way to view hand historys is my first question
i know anything different takes a bit of getting used to but it seems a bit strange also not particularly happy about the 15% weekly decay of any points you accrue
+1 on the 15% decay. Far from encouraging me to play on Betfair, it does the opposite. The points I"ve earned should be mine to keep.
Let"s hope they don"t start a monthly decay of our bankrolls...it"s already hard enough to hang on to :(

Pretty sure Des/Tighty/Leigh have already said that ALL monies goes towards the prize pool.

the points that you earn from playing poker are to help people have a reduction in the % commission betfair take from customers who use the exchange betting.. if you dont bet then it makes no difference to anybody.

Quite a few people had stated on here that they weren"t particularly enamoured with the Betfair poker client. I agreed with some of the comments, but in the interests of the new APAT/Betfair partnership, elected not to post my thoughts.
However, after my first real tourney last night (just played a few SNGs so far), I"m afraid I have to join those who outwardly dislike the client.
On a positive note though, I actually really like the table layout and screen - it"s uncluttered and easy to see stack sizes etc - I can"t stand sites that focus too much on screen graphics, which imo detract from what really matters. Betfair is just about spot on from that perspective.
On the downside though, there is far too much missing or difficult to use, ie Hand History, Tournament Structure, have to go outside the client for account balance, etc. I know the HH is downloaded to my hard drive, but none of the trackers I have will read it. There is a link within the Preferences page that points at something called "Poker Buddy" to read HH, but when I click that I get taken to the Betfair website and to a 404 Page Not Found error. During the tourney last night, I had no clue what the forthcoming levels were going to be - kind of important when considering dynamics of stack sizes, etc.
Lastly, the time allowed for actions is so restrictive - I had a decision to make in Level 1 last night before I had earned any additional timebank...... the short time allowance actually did me a favour though as I made a bad call that turned out to be the correct call.... more time to think, and I would have folded.
Overall gameplay and stability are fine. Just wish the client carried the features that most other sites sport nowadays. If Betfair intend to compete in this highly competitive market, they need to improve the overall user experience. IMO they are unlikely to draw customers away from Stars and Tilt - their competition is with the local sites such as those on the iPoker and Boss networks - but even those clients are dramatically better.
To end on a positive - despite all that I"ve said above, I will actually play more tourneys on Betfair (not just APAT games) as the standard of play in the SNGs is so bad... I presume it will be the same in the low buy-in MTTs.... there must be some value there (plus smaller fields means bedtime at a reasonable hour!)
Like all change - I guess it just takes time to get used to. I hope Betfair are listening to feedback though as many people are making good and valid points re the client software.

how long does it take to get the money in your account when you cash in a tourney on betfair?
it should be straight away, but its not for me.

http://mobile.betfair.com/main/faq.jsp can you play poker on betfair mobile?
Also... betfair points... can you spend them? if so what on? Is there a shop or something....
Sorry if answered already... its just effort to look through thread.

A lot of people seem to have struggled to find hand histories. They are all on your PC"s hard drive - every hand you have played. In "Preferences", ensure "Save hand history" is ticked. It will show the path where they are located, which should be something straightforward like C:\Program Files\Betfair Poker\Hand History, unless you keep your poker software in sub-directories.

Its right, it is there, but, its not exactly conducive to finding it quickly while you are playing..!! And then figuring out in the text file where the stuff is you want to see. Take a 10 minute break from the game while you find it..!!!

Is it just me or does having betfair and hem running together kill anyone elses computer?
I"ve tried having stars/firefox/anything running along side and my pc just freezes after about 5 mins. ??? >:( ???

hem+betfair has known lag issues. PT3+betfair is not so bad... if u post on the hem forum they may be able to give u some help but I know its common.
Also to view hand histories in non text format u need to download betfairs hh viewer separately to the client

Ah, I see. So that"s what the 10 minute break after two hours of a tourney is for.

Wonder if anyone can help me. So far i have missed two buyins for apat national this season, but wish to buyin tonight for the Main Evant at DTD and also 6 max nlh. Do i simply go onto betfair, look at tourneys and then it should come on to register at the designated time. And then just register? Thanks.

That"s it precisely.
To make it easier to find the comps, untick all of the tourney options except "High" and under the other options, untick everything except "Turbo"
That will leave you with a short list which will include the APAT World comps.

I was just sat there thinking, a while back when we first started to use Betfair Poker, all of us were asked to add some constructive criticism with some feedback from the Betfair people. So a load of us obliged, and to be honest, for myself, I was expecting some sort of response from Betfair. Even if Betfair say, that part of our software is fine and we are not changing it.
I sort of feel that 3 or so months down the line, I have not seen anything, and I really have been having a search on the forum.
Have I missed a response or did they just not respond yet? And if they have not responded yet, can someone in the know, please prod Betfair?
Cheers
Carl

Will happily prod on your behalf Carl.
Having spoken at length with the Betfair guys at The Vic, they have a lot going on in the background at the moment. It all sounds very positive, but obviously can"t be discussed publicly yet.
