Abstract (en)

A method and gaming station that provides a toolbar having short-cut tabs that responsively adapt to a wagering state in an electronic or online poker game is provided. The short-cut tabs allow a player to wager in terms of factors such as a pot-size or a minimum wager. The short-cut tabs, and the wagers displayed therein, adapt to a particular context of the game, allowing a player to wager more efficiently during the course of a poker game. In addition, the short-cut tabs may be user-configurable, giving a player desired tabs at specific points of time within a poker game.
