The interface spoils the results of the hand

Hello, this is quite annoying: as soon as it goes all-in, we see the eliminated players before the cards are revealed, which somewhat breaks immersion.

I am not sure if I understand correctly your concern.

Whenever no bidding is possible because all but one active player is all in, the hand cards of the still active players are reveiled. To my knowledge this is international standard - also on all live poker tables.

In my opinion, that adds to the excitement because you can see all hands and you perfectly know which cards are needed for each player to win. There is nothing more exciting than seeing the probabilities change after flop, river, turn are finally reveiled.

Yes, that’s exactly what I’m saying. Look at my screenshot and the arrow I drew: on the right, under the players’ names, the sentence ‘The game is over for this player’ appears when a player has no more chips. The problem is that when an all-in happens, this message appears immediately under the name of the player who lost, before the cards are shown. Basically, the result is already determined and the interface gives it away.

Now I understand. I did not see the arrow in your picture and would not have understand the sentence anyways (it is in french).

I have never noticed this message before. Obviously it should not be there before the cards are reveiled, but one is not forced to look at the player panels if one does not want to see the spoiler...

My interface behaves differently and does not reveil who will lose a heads up. In fact the player panels are updated very slowly - only at the very end...

Perhaps you have changed something in the settings of the game Poker to speed up the visuals?
