Performing an automatic fold-out command and assigning player entries in an online card game

A computer implemented method to assign player entries in an online card game, the method comprising:

• a controller receiving at least one preference parameter corresponding to a player-entry of a player, wherein the player-entry is currently or thereafter assigned to a particular table at which a particular online card game is being played;
• the controller accessing, for the player-entry currently assigned to the particular table, a current hand profitability threshold of a current hand of the particular online card game, and comparing the current hand to the current hand profitability threshold;
• the controller automatically causing the player-entry to fold out of the current hand of the particular online card game based at least in part on a comparison of the current hand to the current hand profitability threshold;
• and
• the controller, in response to automatically causing the player-entry to fold out of the current hand of the particular online card game,
• determining whether there exists an open table that satisfies at least one preference parameter corresponding to the player entry,
• assigning the player-entry to an open table that satisfies the at least one preference parameter corresponding to the player entry, if it is determined that an open table that satisfies at least one preference parameter corresponding to the player entry exists, and
• creating and assigning the player-entry to a new table that satisfies at least one preference parameter corresponding to the player entry, if it is determined that an open table that satisfies at least one preference parameter corresponding to the player entry does not exist.

A computer system to assign player entries in an online card game, comprising:

• a memory to hold program code instructions, in which the program code instructions comprises program code to perform a method to assign player entries in an online card game, the method comprising
• receiving at least one preference parameter corresponding to a player-entry of a player, wherein the player-entry is currently or thereafter assigned to a particular table at which a particular online card game is being played;
• accessing, for the player-entry currently assigned to the particular table, a current hand profitability threshold of a current hand of the particular online card game, and comparing the current hand to the current hand profitability threshold;
• automatically causing the player-entry to fold out of the current hand of the particular online card game based at least in part on a comparison of the current hand to the current hand profitability threshold;
• and
• in response to automatically causing the player-entry to fold out of the current hand of the particular online card game,
• determining whether there exists an open table that satisfies at least one preference parameter corresponding to the player entry,
• assigning the player-entry to an open table that satisfies the at least one preference parameter corresponding to the player entry, if it is determined that an open table that satisfies at least one preference parameter corresponding to the player entry exists, and
• creating and assigning the player-entry to a new table that satisfies at least one preference parameter corresponding to the player entry, if it is determined that an open table that satisfies at least one preference parameter corresponding to the player entry does not exist;
• and
• a controller configured to utilize the program code instructions to perform steps of the method to assign player entries in the online card game.

A computer system to assign player entries in an online card game, comprising:

• a controller configured to receive at least one preference parameter corresponding to a player-entry of a player, wherein the player-entry is currently or thereafter assigned to a particular table at which a particular online card game is being played;
• the controller configured to assess, for the player-entry currently assigned to the particular table, a current hand profitability threshold of a current hand of the particular online card game, and compare the current hand to the current hand profitability threshold;
• the controller configured to automatically cause the player-entry to fold out of the current hand of the particular online card game based at least in part on a comparison of the current hand to the current hand profitability threshold;
• and
• the controller configured to assign the player-entry to another table that satisfies the at least one preference parameter corresponding to the player entry, in response to the controller automatically causing the player-entry to fold out of the current hand of the particular online card game.
