should be a 1/2 pot/ pot button imo, typing in the bets takes too long and the slider doesn't work very well.

battery life isn't great, but OK. I reckon 2-3 tabling you losing 20% of the battery life every hour.

Other than that, the app is perfect!

Is that using 3G or wireless?

I played about an hour this morning 2 tabling on Android Asus Transformer via wireless, lost 14% :/

Agreed, but for a first release they wont be far behind with this on the next update.

The slider is kinda weird as its based on your stack rather than the pot. Obvs people sometimes over bet the pot but most of the time people bet 50% 75% 100% of pot.
So the slider should be based on the pot, I've had a few misclicks betting 4x the pot in the middle...oops!

Every poker site uses a slider based on stack size, anything else would be nonsensial in no-limit games

I used this while playing live at Luton last night.

I was fine with keeping up with when it was my turn to act live.

The blokes either side of me weren't tho.  Kept having to be prompted as my skills on the .50/1$ tables were so interesting to rail.

Maybe using the 3G uses up tons of battery

Must be something up with my phone or something.

I can't use normal apps on mine for an hour without losing half of the battery life.

I was running the app on 3G on my iPhone 4 the other day down the pub and it only sucked up about 10% of the bat in about 3 hours but it was the only app running I had closed down all the other ones

If you're actually using data (e.g. playing on the stars app) - then 3G uses more battery than wi-fi.  If your phone is sitting idle, then wi-fi will use more than 3G.

(I think)
