The K Desktop Environment

6.2. Options Menu

The games menu is used to start and pause the game.

Options->Sound

This option will toggle the sound on or off.

Options->Blinking

If this option has a check beside it, then when you win a hand, the cards which won you the money will blink. If this option is not checked, no cards blink.

Options->Adjust Bet is default.

If this option does not have a check in front of it, and you are playing a 2 person game, you will be responsible for clicking "Adjust bet", if your opponent raises the stakes, because the default action will be to "fold" your hand in defeat.

If, on the other hand, the option does have a check in front of it, and you are in the same situation, the default action of the game, is to match your opponents bet, and you will be responsible for folding your hand.

Options->Save Options

This saves all your options to your hard drive. These options will be restored automatically when you restart KPoker.

Options->Options

This opens a dialog box.

There are two options to adjust:

The text box labled "Draw Delay", determines in milliseconds how long to delay before showing the next card. This can be used to speed up the deals, if you are not interested in the more realistic default speed.

The text box labled "Cash per round", determines how much money is lost each time a new hand is dealt. The winnings are not adjusted based on this option, only how much you lose.
