very nice very thurow howver u spell it. Will do wonders in my league. With the best hand is it just pritty much whatever we want like do we just click on bounties and select the best hand one and it asks for the 5 cards??

Also create a bounties hot key then for these to be easily broughtup for quick access.

good work

For now, I've got the following side bet types in work:

Bad Beat (public/private)
Best Hand (public/private)
Bounty (public-global, public-targeted, private-global, private-targeted, private-group)
Generic (public/private)
Last Longer (public/private)
Most Knockouts (public/private)

For Bounty, Last Longer and Most Knockouts, winners will be auto-tabulated by the app.

For Bad Beat, Best Hand and Generic, you'll need to update the side-bet "win candidates" when you have someone who might qualify.

I'd thought about automatically ranking "Best Hand" candidates for you, but the definition of "Best Hand" really depends on the game you're playing.

Hell, for a HORSE tournament, you might want to have 5 different best-hand jackpots...one for each game.

So, yes. The main console could have a "log side-bet candidate" hot key which would either bring up a list of the side bets that allow logging of potential win candidates or simply pop you into the sole side bet if there is only one.

I also eventually envision console updates for the sidebets....like a side-bet overlay and a side-bet update component...but those won't be in the initial release.
