The new iPoker table
The redesigned client changed both the lobby and the table. Pokerfuse described the result in April 2016, when nearly all of the network's rooms had moved to it.
Lobby
- A flat design with large, coloured tiles instead of a spreadsheet-like game list.
- A new lobby that recommends games.
- More tournament information in one place: player rankings, stack sizes, blind levels and payouts.
Table
- A more spacious layout.
- Stack sizes and pot sizes easier to read.
- Clearer display of whose turn it is and how much time is left to act.
- An optional legacy table design for players who preferred the old look.
Old and new, side by side
| Area | Legacy client | 2015 client |
|---|---|---|
| Lobby | Tabs and spreadsheet-style lists | Tiles, recommendations, filters tucked away |
| Tournaments | Details spread across windows | Rankings, stacks, blinds and payouts together |
| Table | Compact, older graphics | More space, clearer stacks, pot and action timer |
| Platforms | Download client | Download client, plus HTML5 browser client and iPhone/iPad apps |

Pokerfuse also reported that at the start of 2016 the network raised the rake cap on some of its most popular games from €3.00 to €4.00, and that Paddy Power ran a daily €100 "All-In" freeroll to encourage players to move to the new client.
