Hand History Retrieval
Want to review a previous poker hand you played in, or review up to your last 200 poker hands for that matter? Absolute Poker lets you download your hand histories to your hard drive for easy review, or if you prefer to receive the hand histories by email, you can request that we send your last 200 hands to your email account. It's easy, simply go to the "My Account" menu at the top left of the Absolute Poker game lobby and choose the option that you want from "Hand Histories".
Hand histories are stored your hard drive by default. To retrieve these hand histories:
- Go to the "PLAYER'S LOBBY" .
- Click on "MY ACCOUNT" pull down menu in the top left hand corner of the window.
- Click on "HAND HISTORY". Once there, two options will appear.
- Click on "OPEN MY HAND HISTORY FILES".
- This will open a new window. Click on the "OPEN" menu on the top left hand corner of this new window.
- This will show another window, and in it, you should see a folder with your nickname.
- If you double click on this folder, it will open several files (which are in Windows Notepad format).
- Choose the table or tourney that you want to see the hand history for, they will be sorted out by date/table/tourney number, etc.
If you request your hand history by email, it will be sent automatically to the email address you used for setting up your account with us. |

Instant Hand Replay
Players can quickly access a visual summary of their recent hands at a table by using the Instant Hand Replay. To use this feature, select the "R" button that is in the top left corner of the poker room. This will show your hole cards in previous hands as well as the winning hand (if another player won the pot), and any live hands in showdowns in which you were involved. |
| |
Retrieving Statistical Information
Reviewing statistical information is one of the most efficient ways to improve your poker table skills. Next time you are in the pokerroom, click the "Stats" tab in the lower left corner above the chat box and see your current statistics. Refresh them as need be. |
| |
Player Notes
Another way Absolute Poker empowers online poker players is by allowing note taking during play. Learning opponent's playing habits is one way to improve the chances of winning. Simply right click another player's image at the table and select the "Note" option. In doing so a pop up box will appear allowing you to enter notes on that specific player. The player image will then be marked with a letter "N" along side his or her player image indicating the note history you have for that player. |
| |
| Player Chat |
Player chat is a great feature making online poker one of the most fun, interactive games on the Internet. Tell a player "Nice Hand", "Good Game," or a joke you recently heard. A chat cloud will appear over the player who is chatting and then appear seconds later in the chat box. Players can also show their emotions in the game by choosing a facial expression from the emoticons available. Emoticons can be selected from the box to the left of "chat" on top of the chat box.
By default the chat box will be located in the bottom left corner of the poker room. Players may also open the chat box as a separate window by clicking on the "pin" icon located on the top right of the chat box.
Tired of another player's chat? If you want to ignore a player or observer, you can change your options so that you don't see the chat from either the other players and/or observers at the table. To do so, click on the dealer tray marked "Options" in the poker room and unselect the check marks for either "player chat" or "observer chat".
*All chat forums are monitored by the Absolute Poker staff. Chat abuse, which includes swearing, harassment, racist and/or lewd remarks, may result in the loss of chat privileges. Determination of what constitutes chat abuse is in the sole discretion of Absolute Poker. Players are reminded that revealing your cards in chat while a hand is still in play is contrary to the rules, and may result in a loss of chat privileges and further action as is deemed appropriate in the circumstances. |

| *All chat forums are monitored by the Absolute Poker staff. Constant vulgarity could qualify for grounds of dismissal. |

| Find User |
Absolute Poker's "Find User" feature allows you to immediately determine if a player is currently seated at an online poker table, and, if so, which table.
With our "Find User" feature, you will no longer be forced to look at every table trying to find someone or question whether he or she is present in the card rooms. By simply accessing the "Game Info" menu tab in the Main lobby, select "Find User." Now, just type in their user Nickname and a report will display their current status. |
| |
| Six (6) Table Play |
One game not enough? Have a need for more fast and fun poker action? Well at Absolute Poker you can play in up to 6 games/tournaments at once. That's right, so don't be afraid to increase the poker action. Just keep your current game window up and double click another game/tourney listing to pull up another pokerroom. Just make sure you don't have all your bankroll at one table as you will need chips to buy-in to the other games/tourneys. |

| Personalized Player Images |
| |
"First let me compliment the people responsible for creating this best poker site. I feel this is the best one that I've played on. I just deleted Party Poker from my computer and plan to do all my online gaming here. I've also brought a friend here and he plans to stay here as well so thank you."

Did you know that Absolute Poker let's you insert your own personalized picture for view during your play at the tables. Don't just be another player at the table, create a little more identity whether it be an actual picture of you, your idol, or favorite past time hero.
It's easy and quick to do.
From the main lobby under the "My Account" tab, select "Change Image" from the drop down selections. Then, just locate the folder where you saved your digital picture and follow the instructions for up-loading.
You can change your image only once, so make sure you are selective before saving.
Guidelines for creating and uploading an Absolute Poker Avatar image
The supported image formats are .bmp, .gif, .jpeg or .jpg (.png format is not supported).
Our image loading feature can format and resize your image to fit within the Avatar oval (see below) however, if you want to format the picture yourself picture this is an approximate size:
97 pixels wide x 52 pixels high - this will fill up the oval, note that the rounded edges will cover the corners of an image this size.
Step by Step Instructions to upload your Avatar:
In the main lobby click "My Account" located on top in the grey menu bar and select "Change Image"; the "Change Image" window will appear. At the top, your current avatar image will be displayed.
Click "Change Image" button. Navigate the file browser to the image you want and select it. Click "Open".
The "Select Image" window will come up and display the image that you selected.
In the upper left hand corner of the image there will be an outline of a box. This is the Selection Box. Click inside the selection box and hold down the mouse button to move the box over the part of the image that you want. The part you have selected will be previewed in the oval to the right.
If you want to fit more of your image into the preview oval, move the cursor over one of the selection box corners. The cursor will turn into a multidirectional arrow. Hold down the left mouse button and drag the square to cover more of your image. The selection box will get larger and the image in the preview oval will get smaller. Adjust the image so that it fits how you want it.
When the preview oval shows your image exactly as you want it, click "Ok".
The smaller "Change Image" window will now display your new image; if you want to make it your avatar, click "Save" to upload it to our servers. If you don't want to upload the image click cancel and then repeat the steps until you have an image you want to upload
Note:
We do not allow an image to be changed more than once, except in special circumstances. All images will be screened for approval. If your picture does not pass inspection you will be notified.
If you need assistance with issues relating to your player image, e-mail us at support@AbsolutePoker.com |

| Rabbit Cam |
Absolute Poker offers an optional rabbit cam feature on selected games and limits.
Look for the rabbit symbol in the Dealer Tray options menu and select if you would like this option.
When enabled, and active, the rabbit cam will show you what the next card to be exposed would have been, in situations where a hand is completed after the flop, or the turn (4th street), but before the river card (5th street) has been dealt.
The rabbit cam will only show the next card that would have been dealt. If the hand ends after the flop, the turn card will be shown, but not the river card.
The rabbit cam will never show any cards past the river card.
The same card will also be shown in our Instant Replay feature.
