Please review this hand for me and let me know if you think this guy disconnected on purpose?!!. I played with him for about 45 minutes and he didn't have any problems right up to this point and then just timed out and got so see the showdown for free. He'd tried to make these plays before and folded on river feeling he was outkicked which he normally was. Please advise whether or not this would be worthy of reporting to customer support? Please don't comment on my play because i already know it was risky but just let me know about the disconnect.

Regardless of whether or not he abused the DC protect, you played this hand like an idiot.

Actually i had a good read on him...and i knew he would fold with the weak kicker against this board...i didn't expect him to DC though..but like asked before pls do not discuss the actuall play in this hand..just focus on the the DC

I think it's fairly obvious that he did.

I had a recent similar case and reported it to support at party and haven't even heard back...it's been a week now.

I'd say he probably did abuse the All-In protection here. But I seriously doubt the site's customer support would do anything here.

You are right...i contacted customer support and they said the play often has a rocky connection..so they couldn't do any?!!!! Ridiculous...at least i know i won't ever sit at a table with this guy again

If I think someone DC'd on purpose, I always make a comment in chat, and make a note. I think it's more powerful to let others know they are playing with a cheater. If it's the first time, well, you can't know for sure, but a lot of people don't realize that some people do it on purpose.

I legitimately did DP a couple weeks ago with JJ overpair on a guy's big river bet. It couldn't have looked more suspicious and I'm sure everybody at the table thought I did it on purpose, because I got to show down my overpair without having to call his final bet. The other guy had AA and was very angry, but must not have reported me, because I didn't hear anything.
