Setup Preferred Seating for Boss Poker



Overview:

This FAQ shows you how to configure preferred seating to work with Holdem Manager and Boss Media.



 
Solution: 
Some important points need to be understood to configure Boss preferred seating correctly.
  • 5 Max & 6 Max preferred seating is controlled by the one preferred seating option in Holdem Manager. If you sit at seat 5 in 6max then you must also sit at seat 5 in 5max.
  • Boss offer you the option to sit in whichever seat you like however for preferred seating to work with Boss you must sit in the same seat for each game type. If you want to sit in random seats then we do not support this. There are 3 different gametypes, 5/6 Max, 9 Max and 10 Max. Each one of those 3 gametypes can have different preferred seating so you can choose seat 1 for 5/6 max, seat 4 for 9max and seat 8 for 10max.


How to select your preferred seating in Boss

To select your preferred seat just click on the white chair in the bottom right corner (A) and you'll notice a "sit here" (B) button above each seat. Please select this to sit at your preferred seat.

Once you sit at a preferred seat consult the different tables below to determine your seat number and then select that seat number in Holdem Manager by going to Hud Options \ Seating Preferences and select Boss, then choose the seat number for the applicable gametype i.e 5/6max, 9max or 10max.




10 Seat Table
 - Below shows the seating numbers for 10max tables, after finding your seat number go to Hud Options \ Seating Preferences and select boss and choose your seat number from the dropdown menu.

5 or 6 Seat Table Below shows the seating numbers for 5 and 6max tables, after finding your seat number go to Hud Options \ Seating Preferences and select boss and choose your seat number from the dropdown menu.
NOTE: 5max and 6max are both controlled by the same preferred seating option in Hud Options / Seating Preferences (6max) So if you sit in seat 5 for 5max Table(Top Left Corner) then you must choose seat 5 for the 6max Table (Bottom Left Corner)

Important Note: Seating preference only works after we sit down and play a couple of hands not straight away, it does not work while we are observing tables so never move the stats box into their positions while observing or if youve played less than 3 hands. The first time you setup seating preferences just open 1 table, play a couple of hands and move all the stats boxes on that table to the correct places, then open a 2nd table, wait for 3-4 hands and the hands should line up fine then. 

The biggest mistake people make is to start moving the boxes too soon without allowing time for a couple of hands to import because they dont line up until a couple of hands have imported. Also if your having issues with preferred seating make sure WYSIWYG is ticked in Hud Options / Table Preferences
