Familiarizing yourself with ManualMode

Figure 6.1‑63 ManualMode main window

The ManualMode interface is quite intuitive. All relevant elements on the poker table are visible at all times, either populated with objects (like cards or bets), or outlined in white dashed lines if not populated. Each game state element is interacted with slightly differently and is discussed below. In general, however, right-clicking on any element will bring up a list of options you can take to set that element’s state.

- Common Cards: Right-clicking on each common card will bring up a context menu allowing the selection of rank/suit, or “no card”.

- Sit Down/Stand Up: OpenHoldem recognizes the difference between sitting in at a chair, and sitting in a game and being dealt a hand. Right-clicking on either of a player’s cards will bring up a context menu allowing the player to Sit Down or Stand Up from the selected chair.

- Sit In/Sit Out: OpenHoldem recognizes the difference between sitting in at a chair, and sitting in a game and being dealt a hand. Once you have “Sat Down” at a chair, right-clicking on either of a player’s cards will bring up a context menu allowing the player to Sit In to the game or Sit out from the game.

- Player Cards: Right-clicking on either of a player’s cards will bring up a context menu allowing the selection of rank/suit, “cardbacks” or “no card”. Note: prior to assigning cards, a player must have “Sat In” the game.

- Player Names: Right-clicking on the player’s name rectangle will pop up a window prompting for a string to use as the player’s name. Note: prior to assigning names, a player must have “Sat Down” at the table.

- Player Balances: Right-clicking on the player’s balance rectangle will pop up a window prompting for a string to use as the player’s balance. Note: prior to assigning balances, a player must have “Sat Down” at the table.

- Player Bets: Right-clicking on the player’s bet rectangle will pop up a window prompting for a string to use as the player’s bet. Note: prior to assigning bets, a player must have “Sat In” the game.

- Dealer Button: Right-clicking on either of a player’s cards will bring up a context menu allowing the assignment of the dealer button to the selected chair. The “D-” and “D+“ buttons can also be clicked to move the dealer button around the table anti-clockwise or clockwise.

- Blinds/Limits: Right-clicking on the center information box will pop up a window in which the small blind, big blind, big bet, ante, game type (FL, PL, NL), network (useful if integrating with {PokerTracker}), and tournament indicator can be set.

- Buttons: Left-clicking on any game-state button on the table will toggle its state from on to off. These include the FCKRA buttons on the bottom right (fold, call, check, raise, allin), and the “play” buttons on the lower left (sit out, leave table, prefold, autopost).

There are some shortcuts built into ManualMode to allow easier setup of game states:

- “P-“ and “P+” buttons: These buttons will remove and add players from the table. As players are added, they will Sit Down, Sit In, and will be assigned a name and balance. Players will be added from chair 0 to chair 9, depending on what is open, and removed in reverse order.

- Macro: Right clicking on the “Macro” button will open a window allowing for a string to be entered. Left clicking on the “Macro” button will execute that macro. The format of the macro string is described here: {Macros}

- Betting: Left-clicking on a player’s bet rectangle will call the current bet. Shift-left-clicking on a player’s bet rectangle will raise. (right click to set a specific SWAG).

Note: When ManualMode detects a betting round change (i.e. 0 to 3, 3 to 4 or 4 to 5 common cards), then all player bets will be collected into the pot, and all player bets will be reset to zero.
