Default pokerstars connection problems?

Is anyone else frozen up in Pokerstars? It's 8:30 PM right now, and I am frozen out of a MTT & a SNG.

I'd appreciate any info. Thanks.

Brett

I'm playing the $20 rebuy and 5of 9 players are sitting out after they all timed out at about 8:20pm EST.

4 handed rebuy....I think I'm seeing 75% of the flops! [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

I froze up at a cash game, but the "leave table" button was working, so I just logged out.

Was in a SnG down to 4. 2 lagged out and 2 remained and we had to wait forever till each of them folded. Was still in a cash game and playing fine. Felt laggy so I thought I'd relogin. Now I can't get back in.

Got 4 people sitting out at my SnG now. Really funny. 7 people at the table and only 3 of us connected.

This is ridiculous. I can get into the lobby, but not the individual tables. Also, I can see that my stacks are shrinking, so some people still have access. Why does Stars not shut down all action when they have a problem like this. They may have just convinced me to move my bankroll elsewhere.

Yeah, we as players should not have to stand for a few hours of problem in an otherwise mostly perfect program!

I am not condemning Pokerstars, nor would I plan to not play on it again because of tonight's problem.

IMHO, I agree, that it is an almost perfect program, and I think it is the best online poker site, by far.

I wasn't sure if anyone else was having the same problem, and again, I thank the 2+2ers for the information!

Is anyone actually able to play right now? Is it only a select few who are frozen or is this site wide?
