Anyone who hates the Full Tilt Bet Slider…
If you had the slider as much as i did, check out this link and hidden feature within Full Tilt. It makes a betpot script worthless and also can make your bet sizing like pokerstars’ bet slider… Enjoy. Also, Please heed the warning about creating registry keys. If you don’t know what you are doing, please feel free to ask me and i can give you a little insight, or you can just google ‘edit a registry’. Basically you will be creating 3 new ‘d_word’ registries.

One of our programmers managed to sneak a few changes to the bet slider into this most recent update. We didn’t have time to make nice options out of it, but if you’d like to try it out, instructions are below.
VERY IMPORTANT NOTE: These instructions will be suggesting registry changes. If you don’t know what you’re doing you can seriously mess up your system. My suggestion is don’t do the below unless you’re confident it won’t melt your computer and/or kill your dog.
Here are his notes:
“To activate the mouse wheel / bet slider functionality (where you can control the bet slider with your mouse wheel):
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Full Tilt Poker\TableView\
REG_DWORD SliderWheel 1
I have also implemented 3 different slider algorithms for deciding how to map a bet amount to a slider position, and vice versa:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Full Tilt Poker\TableView\
REG_DWORD SliderMode {0,1,2}
SliderMode = 0, is the “classic” mode, i.e. the same old mapping. This divides the slider in two equal halves with linear interpolation on each half around the pot-size as fulcrum. Lame.
SliderMode = 1 is a pure linear slider from 0% = min to 100% = max. This is what most sites use.
SliderMode = 2 is my favored algorithm. It is borrowing the same logic as the slider algorithm from Poker Academy Pro. It uses a logarithmic scale, so that moving the slider at the start is less sensitive, but as you move it towards 100%, the amount increases exponentially.
And finally:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Full Tilt Poker\TableView\
REG_DWORD SliderClick 1
In the regular slider, clicking anywhere on the slider instantly moves the slider nub to the spot clicked. With SliderClick active, clicking to the right of the nub increments the amount by a big blind, and clicking on the slider to the left of the nub decrements the amount. Clicking and dragging the nub still works as before.”
So give the various options a try and let us know which you like. It’s likely we’ll just offer all possibilities as options anyway, but some idea of what you guys prefer would help us choose what the default settings should be.
