F disconections !!!! [/ QUOTE ] 100% agree. Duunno how all the tournaments on all these sites are still going on. The sites should have canceled and refunded the prizepool to the players still in. Anyways, i'm watching you, aslong as my connection holds up. |

And the problems are general backbone-related. Don't you have an alternate means of connecting to the Internet in the even of issues like this? First time I got disconnected once I started 4 $209 SNGs I got a backup. |

Re: Final Table Super Thursday
Look at the Stars $3 rebuy for example, at the bubble of the FT, all but 1 guy was disconnected, shortstack went from 250k to 2million.
And would a backup work? isn't it about location? a lot of players were affected by this, and it created an unfair balance int he tournaments. Maybe i'm just cranky, but the situation i was in i dont think was that bad, but the $3 rebuy, and the 45k too.. those really sucked. edit: sorry for the hijack. i'm watching you take this down sirio. |

[/ QUOTE ] I was "disconnected" from my Party tables tonight even though my connection to www.yahoo.com was 100% and the report came up "very good" from Party. Only my www.partypoker.com connection was having problems so I think there's a bug in their latest software update. If it would just switch to yahoo when the party connection goes down, there would be no disconnects. I don't see how having a backup connection would help in this instance. Later, Che Edit: Just read exitonly's reply. I guess there are internet problems, but I still don't understand why I can connect 100% to their mirror without being able to connect to my table.

First there is all the money I lose from the pots, then there is all the hands I can't play, and finally there is the hands I must sit out cause I'm NEVER going to "post+dead". So I have DSL and Cable connections. Cable I don't think ever goes out, but I wouldn't know because the switch over is pretty seemless. But what's an extra $30 a month when disconnects were costing $100-200 a day. On a side note: There were a LOT of limit players DCed but stuck on the tables tonight. Was not uncommon to have a full table, but only 3-4 sitting in tonight. |

[/ QUOTE ] You should know better Lloyd, of course I have, problem was all the 123,456 alternative methods I have were not working. And I don't know also, how you were so sure most of the players had no conections problems, just by reading the multiple poker boards, it's easy to see that there was not a minimal issue. Actually I had to phone a friend in Mexico, and I was giving him instructions by phone. It really sucked, especially a big pot I was disconected in the turn when I was the chip leader vs the second chip leader in my table. Oh well, s happens. |
