Redbelly
Flush
This will be a rather quick review of this App that I just came across on the App store!
THANK GOD!
I had hosted a number of tournaments and my first Redbelly WSOP Tournament Season on Poker Manager which at the time was a great Tournament Manager App for the iPad! Unfortunately I downloaded OS 8 and it rendered the App unusable and it is not supported with updates to this day. I have tried Poker Timer, Custom Blinds, etc but all were very limited and not close to what Poker Manager HAD offered! Well THAT has just changed!
I have spent a giddy morning after downloading "Blinds Up" for my iPad! It surpasses anything that I have found yet and blows away what Poker Manager use to be!
It allows you to customize players, chips, displays, sounds, tables, etc...
The "free" download allows only a 8 person table but you can download the full version for 9.99 (which I did) and think it will be a great addition to my Redbelly Season 3 Tournament! It is compatible with an external display and even projector.
I've included a quick screen shot of what I made and also a listing of features from their site.
Here's a link as well: http://www.iosmobileapp.com/jlbiz/blinds_up/appId827327902#
For anyone needing a quality Tournament app I think you will be VERY pleased!!!
