It may seem cluttered but you don't have to have the windows open all the time I would suspect, and it places a icon for each hand on the toolbar to open and close at will anyways:-)

This is what I am doing now, except using private windows, visible to all, since other people should be able to see the number of chips you have. However, the game allows up to 5 players, so this results in a fairly cluttered desktop, since you have a main area, your hand, and up to 5 windows for other players' chips. thanks, Bryan [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] ------------------------ Yahoo!
