Separate tournament and ring game balances?

Post by ttrahan »

Is it currently possible to track tournament and ring game account balances separately (without coding against the API)?

In our weekly neighborhood game, we start the night with a tournament, then start ring game(s) as players become available. Usually this occurs before the conclusion of the tournament, so both tournament and 1 or 2 ring games will be going concurrently. Two situations make it so having the chip balances available broken down by Tournament and Ring Game balances:
* I send a summary of the weekly game activities for settlement purposes and breaking it down would be helpful
* Our Tournament payout structure accounts for total buy-ins, not player count, which requires a manual adjustment made offline, instead of just being able to use a player's account balance at the end of the night for settlement. The separation would make this adjustment calculation easier.

The Gold edition supports a secondary currency so you could make all tournament buy-ins in the primary currency and the ring buy-ins in the secondary currency (or vice versa).

Gold version is out of reach for our neighborhood game. Any chance you'd open this feature up for Pro version in the future?

I depend on Gold edition sales to stay in business, so no.
