Game Controller Guide

• Game Controller Support

  Playing poker with a game controller allows you to sit back and relax during your online sessions. With IntuitiveTables, you can configure each button on the game controller to perform specific actions on the table, such as raise or fold. You can even move and simulate mouse clicks right from the controller!

• Automatic Table Cycling

  IntuitiveTables can automatically focus each table for you. You can also configure the controller to rumble whenever it's your turn to act on a table. This makes multi-tabling with a controller a breeze.

• Note: Only official XBox game controllers are supported. For PlayStation controllers you can use the free software DS4Windows convert your PlayStation controller to an XBox controller inside Windows.

Cycling Option 1 - Jump Mouse

• Note: This setup is recommended for SNG/MTT/Spins since it quickly can regain focus whenever a new table arrives and steals focus. Also if the table under the mouse has been closed and the desktop is under the mouse, table cycling will resume. This is not possible in any other setup.

  Bring table to front on hero's action

  If you aren't stacking tables you will need to enable Urgent Table Cycling here. If stacking is enabled then this feature is on by default.

  Auto-Jump mouse to next urgent table

  This will automatically move the mouse to the next table needing action. The mouse will also jump whenever the table under the mouse is moved or a new table is focused with a hotkey.

  Activate table under mouse

  Make sure this setting is enabled in the Main Settings area. The importance of this setting is that even if new tables are loaded and focus is stolen, you will immediately regain focus. It is also very helpful to allow the active table border to immediately update when the focus switches.

  Hotkey Target - Table Under Mouse

  Since the mouse is moving to the table requiring action select "Table Under Mouse" as hotkey target. This also allows hotkeys to always be sent to the desired table even if a new table has loaded at the same moment as the hotkey.

Cycling Option 2 - Activate Table

• Note: This setup may be used if you don't want your mouse to jump tables like in Configuration 1. This is a useful setup for cash game players where tables aren't constantly opening and closing.

  Activate table (take focus)

  Disable Activate table under mouse

  It's important to disable "Activate table under mouse" in this setup, otherwise focus may keep jumping back to a table if it's located directly under the mouse.

  Hotkey Target - Active Table

  With hotkey target "Active Table" you now will no longer need to worry about where the mouse is when using controller hotkeys. Instead, the focused table will receieve the hotkeys.
