Default I hate Empire!

2 all-in protections. 4 tables. Involved in three pots, two small and one HUUUUGE where I have the nuts on the turn. Power outage. Which two pots do you think my all-in protections protected?

Yes, reasonably. Though I don't think my computer selected a specific order to disconnect them in when my entire block went black.

Murphy off course ordained the order.

Why do you hate Empire because of this? Do they control the power on your block?

The two pots that you would have won, taking money from the fish, causing them to bust out and stop playing sooner, which would limit the amount of games, which would then limit the amount of rake that the evil poker site vampires can suck from your innocent veins. BWAHAHAH!

If a power failure during two big pots is expensive, get one of those UPS power backup do-hickys.

No, they only control the number of all-in protections you get. Imho you should get only one, but that one accounts for all tables you play when disconnected. It can't really be abused (much) more than the current system.

A stupid question. Shouldnt disconnect protection protect your hands from being disconnected? If youre 12 tabling, shouldnt they all get protected, since you disconnected just once. It isnt your option to get disconnected, nor can you choose which ones get protected. Seems as if they have the rule, it should protect you fully. And yes, one is more than plenty.
