New Features: More Control, More Information
In addition to the thrilling new tournament offerings, BetRivers Poker has rolled out two major gameplay enhancements aimed at giving players a competitive edge:
- In-Hand Action Summary: This new feature provides a concise breakdown of all actions taken in the hand so far—perfect for multi-tablers or players looking to stay sharp during long sessions. No need to scroll through the hand history; it’s all right there on the table.
- Larger Preset Bets: Players can now configure their bet sliders to exceed 100% of the pot, making it easier to apply maximum pressure in key spots. Whether you’re shoving on scary rivers or polarizing your range, this update provides more flexibility in your strategy.
These changes are live now, and BetRivers is actively soliciting feedback from players. Try the features out at your next table and let the developers know what you think.
Community Input: Help Shape the Future
BetRivers is also inviting players to participate in an important poll that could impact the structure of upcoming promotions. The question at hand: When should leaderboard competitions reset? Whether you’re a grinder or a weekend warrior, your voice could influence the next phase of leaderboard play.
Players can vote directly via the BetRivers Poker client or on the platform’s official X (formerly Twitter) account. It’s a welcome step toward transparency and community involvement.
