Default Re: What is (no DP)?

too bad that something that was supposed to help you when you get disconnected is being abused by BAD players.

What happens is a player bets and has a lot of money in the pot, when another player raises. The first player into the pot doesn't want to put any more money into the pot. So he/she sits there until the software times out. So he is eligible for the main pot but not the extra pot. He loses his original bet before the raise on that round of betting, but can get the main pot if he has the best cards. Interpoker was rampant with this activity. Every one complained and they took the protection away since it was clearly used for cheating, not protection.

I will never play at a table that has disconnect protection. That way I won't ever get cheated. AND it is cheating to time your self out!!!!!!

Anyone that did it at the tables I was at got turned in.
