I'm trying to play some SNG's 11 and 22s on party but there don't seem to be any games to join. On the 22s I see 4 games all of which are already started. I've been waiting 8 minutes now... Anyone else having this problem?

Yes in addition my 4 tables going right now are down. At first I thought it was just my favorite skin, Eurobet! (yes, sarcasm...)

Can't log in to empire or euro. Lucky I took a break about 15 mins ago.

As an interesting sidenote, coming from a former career as an electrical engineer who worked in designing facilities with redundant systems...

How much do you think Party Gaming loses every minute of downtime? I bet it's a lot!

meh, party won't open new tables now either.

I'm done for the day anyway. Losing three hands where I am 90%+ favourite in a row is my limit for a day. /images/graemlins/frown.gif

Well that's the $220 question, isn't it? Or the $88 question. Or the $860 question... etc.

Crap I got greedy and tried to restart Party to join 1 more even though my 3 other tables were running fine...now I can't even get back on and I probably lost 3 tables worth >:(

I assume that they will just refund the buy-ins, as Party and skins are not the most reliable for good customer service.

Looks like I got lucky, got 1st and 3rd and then stopped after that set, 10 mins before this post was made.

Mr_J
07-20-2005, 07:44 PM
Come on, still got 35 to go for today...

maybe it's a sign...

Last time this happened they refunded everything based on the number of people left in every SnG, so I wouldn't worry.

according to their public filings, they make $1,000 profit per minute and $100K revenue per hour. in other words, someone is probably getting fired over this (I hope).

Pretty weird.

My (thankfully) one table on Empire is frozen. I can open other tables and they are running normal. WTF?

I noticed the same thing. My table froze so i opened one that was running and it seemed fine. I closed empire and restarted and haven't been able to get on since.

I know there's a refund policy based on how many people were on the table when the server goes down... but what if others at the table you got disconnected from weren't affected somehow and were able to play on. The reason why I speculate this is because I had 6 tables going when I noticed some tables were ok but others were not connected, and out of desperation just shut down the software thinking restarting it might help. Of course it did'nt and I'm wondering what happened to those tables that were ok when I shut down.

Is this the case specific to PartyPoker only or other skins.... such as Eurobet?

Eurobet refunded me a few weeks ago when they went down.

Empire appears to be back up.

I had only entered in 2 $22s when it went down and the disconnection went on and off every 5 minutes. I ended up winning one and getting 3rd in the other by taking a ton of free blinds for a nice $96 profit (which, amazingly, is actually in my account). I'm pretty sure this will be gone and they will refund everyone though.


Might as well stick it out just in case, right?

Hi,

I was in the middle of 4 $10+1 sit and go tournaments
when all of my games froze. My internet connection
was fine. I tried exiting out and restarting party
poker, and was unable to even log in. Many others on
a poker forum I visit have been experiencing this
problem as well. Please refund my money for these 4
tables, in addition to any excess monies gained from
players already eliminated in accordance with Party
Poker's terms of service.

Thanks,
xxxxx
