Default Can\'t get ANY action! (anti blind stealing, low content)

Decent table, finally pick up a good hand and nobody wants to play. What else could I have done to induce a call? My blind stealing skills are a little too good.

Party Poker 3/6 Hold'em (10 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is CO with K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">6 folds</font>, Hero calls, <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>.

Final Pot: 1.16 BB

Raise preflop.

Though that does suck.

When an aggressive opponent open limps from CO or button I get very suspicious. I'm actually more likely to pay off if you raise.

Anyway, that is funny. But I've actually done this twice when I started multitabling. I clicked on fold not thinking or realizing I was BB.

I agree with this?

Doesnt the software have a thing that stops you from folding when checking is an option? (PP and skins)

You might have accidentally turned it off. There has to be a way to turn it back on.

Not from the BB for some reason. Any other time (the few times I've done it) it works fine. But twice from the BB I clicked fold and it didn't ask. No big deal though because I'm more careful now.

Yet another example of the fine software PP + skins has to offer.

Speaking of which, does anyone else have a problem getting removed from waiting lists after you're on for a while? This happens to me quite a bit. I've emailed them about 5 times so far and they said they're "working on it". Last night I was first in line for two different very good 3/6 tables with a waiting list of I think 11 on both and I look down and see I was removed from both. Talk about frustrating. The BB fold issue I could care less about compared to that. I have broadband connection that's on the faster end of the broadband spectrum and never get disconnected unless Party's servers have issues so I know it isn't that. It really pisses me off when it happens. I know it isn't just me because they were aware of the issue before I talked to them. I'm just curious if it happens to everyone. Is it possible it's something with the McAfee antispyware or Norton that I can change some settings or something?

Yes this happens to me too. Also broadband connection, also seem to be random events - no rhyme or reason to when it happens.
