Default Re: My Experience at Hollywood Poker (PokerRoom) thus far

Two more things:

Also, the patch server (that checks for updates before you can log on, each time you log on), is in need of repair, as frequently I can't connect to it, and then I have to try again in a few moments before logging onto the server. So I can log on, but it takes a while and isn't very convenient.

Also, you have a delay on the net, naturally. I'm pretty sure that party compensates for this: if you haven't responded in time, it pings you to see what your internet delay is before declaring that you've timed out. So, if you put out a request to play at 1 second remaining, but it takes 2 seconds to get there, I THINK your action still counts at party. However, it appears that it doesn't work that way at Hollywood. I've punched in a command and gotten timed out. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

If you wish to join the waitlist for a table, in the lobby screen, select your table, but click the waitlist button at the top of the lobby, rather than opening the table like on party network.

Because of the issues with GT+, it's best to use the big deck, too.
