    When you reach the final table on full tilt everyone can check a box to chop. I have no problem the way stars does chops but I do think it be kinda cool to have a box to check to pause the tournament. Maybe once the tourney pauses stars could auto come to table.

    How the hell have they not added something like this yet? Its such a joke. You need to sit out and trust everyone to do it at the same time and email a mod to make a chop. Such a joke. Fix this stars.

    That's a really good idea. It's a win/win because then people wouldn't have to email stars, and have whoever reads the emails get someone over there. With this, it would be an automatic email to the chat support guys.

    I think it was the sunday million a couple of days ago where I saw this affect a chop. I believe they were down to 5 or 6 players and there was talk to look at numbers. The PS host said that all players needed to agree to pause and he would pause the tourney. Everyone typed "agreed" and the host missed a player and asked him to agree. This allowed another hand to go down where a player lost another BB to a raise.

    Because the pause was screwed up by a PS host, one player gained a few K in equity and another player lost it. The chop wasn't successful and they played longer, but it would have affected the outcome had the chop been agreed to.

    definite cosign... would've been nice to have this option at the FT of the $5 mill special a few weeks ago. That deal-making process was a complete joke.

    def cosign, they should have a pause/deal button which then gets a mod to the tables, instead of emails. Even if they don't wanna give control of the deal to players, atleast they can make calling the mod a lot more easier.

    Why the hell can you call a mod because someone swore at you but you need to email to make a chop. This is one of the main reasons i started playing on full tilt more. No reason for this stuff.

    sick brag about chopping ;) congrats for whatever it was.

    its amusing that you can get a mod to the table when someone is cursing (we are all supposed to be adults) or speaking in foreign language (they just come and say hi, wish everyone good luck, and leave), but when something that actually effects the play of the game, it takes 10 minutes to get a representative there while people can be angle shooting.
