this is utterly stupid

[groovy8]

So I'm having cable modem problems and had used up my
disconnect protection on Party. I get AA and make my way to
the river with a probable winner, the first two guys check
and I'm last to act. Pot is $60 at $2/$4.

At the exact moment that I click the check button, I lose
connection. After it comes back, I request the hand
history. Yep, they FOLDED me.

What the hell? Tech support was less than sympathetic, and
all I got back was a stupid $10 bonus.

Why on earth would they make their software fold you upon
disconnect when checking is an option?

Dumbfounded...
