Does anyone else get extremely pissed when someone takes advantage of disc/ protect in a hand? Take a look...

Party Poker 3/6 Hold'em (8 handed) converter (http://www.selachian.com/tools/bisonconverter/hhconverter.cgi)

Preflop: Hero is SB with K/images/graemlins/diamond.gif, A/images/graemlins/heart.gif.
<font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP1 raises</font>, <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero 3-bets</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP1 caps</font>, Hero calls.

Flop: (9 SB) T/images/graemlins/diamond.gif, 2/images/graemlins/spade.gif, A/images/graemlins/spade.gif <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, MP1 calls.

Turn: (5.50 BB) 3/images/graemlins/spade.gif <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>.

Right here the villain disconnects

River: (6.50 BB) T/images/graemlins/heart.gif <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>

Final Pot: 6.50 BB

Results in white below: <font color="#FFFFFF">
MP1 has Jh Jd (two pair, jacks and tens).
Hero has Kd Ah (two pair, aces and tens).
Outcome: Hero wins 6.50 BB. </font>

I hate this bullshit. This guy only had like 20 bucks left and I definitely would have tapped him on this hand. Obviously sometimes people really do disconnect but I'm pretty sure this was crap. After he came back, right after the blinds passed him, I went off on him a little, which I feel kind of bad about. I was def being a dick (as another 2+2er who was at the table will probably concur) but I couldn't stand it. What do you guys do when someone disconnects at such a suspect time?

Good luck,
Matt

If you're playing from a good connection, play on the no DP tables so this type of this doesn't happen. I play on wireless and get disconnected sometimes, so I don't, but I've never intentionally disconnected.

Yeah you are right but I pick my tables based on how easy they are, not whether they're no DP. However you are correct, I should seek out some fishy no DP tables if I can.
