Re: Final table sweat?
Yugo's haiku sums it up nicely. I was a healthy though distant 2nd with 4 players remaining when my internet connection abruptly failed. By the time I logged back on, about 5 minutes and 3 aneurysms later, one of the other 3 players was gone, but so was half my stack. One nasty suckout later, I was watching the HU showdown from the rail. Oh wait, no, I was plotting to murder Comcast.
GOOD GOD, IS THERE NO RELIABLE, SPEEDY INTERNET SERVICE ON THIS UGLY PLANET?! Thanks Zebra, Apathy, Yugo, and everyone else who stopped by for your support. |

My DSL isn't quite as fast, but it's been a hellavu lot more reliable. P.S. Congrats on the 3rd place finish, regardless. |

That's how I feel about it. Cable speed is great, but not at the expense of reliability. And cable has had decades to practice being completely unreliable. Just about every cable company gets in massive lawsuits with its customers. No thanks, not for something important like poker.
Oh, and grats Ilya. |

[/ QUOTE ] To defend cable, I have not had an outage that I have known about in over year. But I'm in Canada, and maybe just lucky. Although if I was playing poker seriously for the amounts of money some people on here do, I would get DSL and Cable. Unlikely they are both going down and for the cost of 1 buy-in (maybe 2 oe 3) seems like good insurance. |

The problem is that the cable companies don't make any money by adding capacity. They only add capacity when they start getting enough complaints and lost customers. Mine was great for years. Then, more and more people in my neighborhood started getting it. Gradually, my service degraded. I dumped it. Hopefully other people in my neighborhood will as well, Comcast will notice, they'll decide to upgrade, and I'll switch back. |
