Title: Seating Dealers and Other Players
Post by: brewdawg93 on January 10, 2022, 02:24:48 PM
For our home game we have 2 dedicated dealers for each table.  The dealers are assigned to 2 seats in the middle of each table.  Is there a way to indicate which seats are dedicated to dealers and which players are dealers, and randomly seat them in one of the 4 dealer seats.  And then randomly seat the other players at the 2 tables?

Any suggestions or ideas are appreciated.

Assuming two tables of 10 seats, your dealers would sit at seats 5 and 6 of each table:

- Right-click on each seat except the "dealer seats" (seats 1 through 4, then 7 through 10, on each table) and select "Make seat unavailable".
- Buy-in your dealers and make sure no other players are bought-in.
- Press "Seat Players" on the Tables tab.
- Press the "Clear" button on the Tables tab.  Check only the box that says "Make available all seats marked unavailable".  Then press OK.  (Alternatively, right-click on each seat and select "Make seat available".)
- Right click on each dealer and select "Lock [name] in seat".
- Buy-in remaining players and seat them.  Either check "Auto seat" on the Buy-in window or once they are bought in press the "Suggest Movement" button.

Awesome.  I figured there is a way to do it.  But couldn't figure it out.

Thanks for the help
