Step-by-step guide
Follow the process in order, then check the room's current lobby and cashier terms before committing funds.
- 1
Access hotkey settings
Open Ignition Poker's settings and look for "Hotkeys", "Keyboard Shortcuts", or "Key Bindings" in the preferences.
- 2
Configure basic actions
Set up hotkeys for the most common actions: Fold (F), Call/Check (C), Raise (R), All-In (A). These should be easily accessible on your keyboard.
- 3
Set up bet sizing shortcuts
Configure keys for common bet sizes: 1/3 pot, 1/2 pot, 2/3 pot, full pot, and 2x pot. This eliminates the need to manually enter bet amounts.
- 4
Add table management hotkeys
Set up shortcuts for switching between tables, sitting out, rebuy/add-on, and opening the cashier. These are especially useful when multi-tabling.
- 5
Practice and refine
Play a few sessions using only hotkeys. Refine your key bindings based on what feels natural and efficient for your hand placement.
Tips and best practices
- Place your most-used hotkeys on your left hand (near WASD) so your right hand stays on the mouse for table selection.
- Use consistent hotkeys across all poker clients for muscle memory.
- Hotkeys become crucial when multi-tabling — they can save several seconds per decision.
- Consider using a gaming keyboard with macro support for complex actions or bet sizing sequences.
