In The Money (ITM) – The ITM indicator displays how many prizes will be awarded for the tournament
Multi-colour ITM display- Position and ITM will be highlighted depending on how close a tournament is to the prize pay-out:
No highlight when the field remaining is greater than 120% of number of players ITM
Amber highlight when field remaining is 120% or less of number of players ITM
Green highlight once ITM is reached
Late Reg Countdown- To make it clearer to players when late registration will close, a new countdown has been added to the status column and the right-hand panel for a selected tournament in the lobby.
New KO Series table theme- a new theme replaces the recent POWERFEST theme to support the up and coming series that is offering over $30 Million in Guaranteed prizes. Click here to learn more about the series.
