Full Tilt dealt me 1 card....

I am playing in some sng's at Full Tilt and had a hand where I was only dealt one card. I am mutli-tabling so did not have time to get a screen shot before timing out - but did call my husband in to see it as a witness.

I had the Qs and that was it lol. Now funny thing is when I go back and view the HH I also had the 6h - if it was truly there it was 100% invisible.

I have never seen that happen anywhere before.

That is crazy and if it was anyone other than you posting this I would think they were wrong, lol.

Me too lol.

You've been playing too much poker...

did u swallow any lil pills or drink anything before the game ?
ok joes a witness so we have to believe you lol but dang that would have been a cool screeny , have it ready next time lol .

wow, full tilt has been in one of its moods lately, but this is really strange

Yea I hate I didn't have time to get a screen shot. The queen was in the correct position on the left - but it was definitely the only card I had. (or the only one visible to me.)

or maybe you just gotta get a new pair of glasses

As a totally independent witness, without any pressure and of my own free will , I can 100% confirm that only 1 card was showing - queen - very weird!

Kind of hard to know what to do in that position........turned out afterwards it was Q6 so the fold was a good one!

Well I didn't voluntarily fold - I timed out. I was waiting to see if I ever got another card lol.

Insta all-in if you had an Ace.. the other one could have been another Ace!

Well - it was a Q. But with my stack size another Q would have been instant all in lol. That was why I waited.

Ok in no way am i disputing that this happened but where I'm confused is how did you have time to call your husband in and have him see it but you didn't have time to push the print screen button???? Good thing you didn't look at HH and see another Q was with it.

If both cards showed up in the HH then that sounds like some sort of client side lag where it didn't receive the packet for your 2nd card.

So your card was dealt server-side.. your client just failed for what ever reason..

Yeah, I had it happen in a ring game. However, I didn't have any cards. LOL, I was multitabling and looked and didn't have any cards, I was like WTF. But I had the call, fold and raise button. So I called.

the flop came 8AJ, the BB bets out half pot, so I called. The turn was a 4. The BB bets pot, I'm like I have no clue what I have, but I want to see how this goes, so I'm calling no mater what. I call, the river comes a 4 and the BB bets out pot. I called and then my cards showed up, I had 84 LOL, and the guy in the BB had AJ and he was like how do you call that on the flop and I told him I couldn't see my cards. I wanted to see how it panned out. And I told him don't you think I would have reraised you on the river had I known I had a FH!!!

So it is possible, I'm sure if you hover your mouse over your name it will tell you what the cards are. I just wasn't smart enough to think about that as it happened.

I am not 100% sure, but something like that happened to me, it was either 1 card missing or the card/s were shown face down, I am sure I posted a screeny of that, so if you feel like searching through the 1000 or so screenys I've posted go ahead, I'm not...lol.

BTW this smells of Full Tilt being rigged, how dare they shortchange dakota like that.

lol why did you keep calling? Wanted to see if you really had no cards and showdown nothing?? Wonder who woulda won that pot? Invisible cards (or no cards) VS AJ?

Aha!

Exactly, I wanted to see what happened at the show down. It was really a weird deal. Like I really thought I didn't have cards and I was like if I don't have cards what are they going to do at the showdown? Like I said I just wanted to see what happened. LOL, at the time it was worth losing a stack if that's what it came down to.

Make more videos XD

I don't do print screens the same way you do. My husband was just a few feet away so it took him 2 seconds to look at my screen - then I timed out and the hand was gone.

Wow thats super weird...could it be possible you were just laggy or lost connection for a min?

Nope - I was on 4 FT tables at the time and action was normal on the other 3. I was actually actively making plays on 2 of them.

I've never had only one card showing before, but on Carbon...I've had to wait sometimes past the time just to see my hand...it appears facedown & is so frustrating...and then Carbon has me sitting out the next hand! It's so frustrating!

Sheesh...one card?! FT must know you're a really good player & decided to test your skills?

Like TriggaLos, I've rec'd -0- cards even though the options to fold or call or raise were available; unlike TriggaLos, I wasn't daring enough to call/raise & instead waited for cards to appear...timed out before that occurred.

On Saturday, I got only one card on Carbon. I thought it was my PC so I just folded, logged out, and logged back in. I was only playing that one game and all was well after that.

Somethign similar happened to me like this when they were doing all that updating a while back, but one card was face down, so I had to look in the chat box to see what my card was, luckily I was not multi-tableing at this point.

It's been happening with some regularity lately at FTP (it's still rare but it does happen). It's a display issue not a dealing issue. If you hover your mouse pointer over your pod (where your name/stack is shown) you'll see the pop up with both cards listed. You can do this to decide how you want to play the hand. I have seen screen caps with this, the problem Trigga Los had, as well as people who can't see the board cards recently, so I believe you.

haha that is a funny story. Maybe it was a little late at night and you and your husband had a little too much to drink and you were playing poker for quite a while i think that is what you are missing from this story.

Stuff like this happened to me (and others IIRC) a bunch of times on Full Tilt a few months ago when they were doing their major software upgrade and still working the bugs out of the system. Occasionally you'd get just one card or sometimes no cards, or the betting buttons didn't work.

Hasn't happened to me anytime recently but it's possible this is a hangover from the upgrade as well.

I never thought to hover my mouse over my name - I was so surprised and being in early position the action got to me quickly and I timed out making sure Joe got in here to see it lol.

I also took the time to type in the chat box that I only had 1 card - but I know nobody believed me.

Anyone want odds on whether or not FT responds to my email? lol

I sent them a few months ago that they have yet to respond to. Good thing it wasn't very important.

When I read the title of this thread on the main page, I thought it was by some noob yelling the the sky is falling. Turns out I was right. :-)

When full tilt had some updates last year, I stopped getting cards in time. I would always see my cards after the hand was over. Very frustrating. In your case I would have thought the other one was a wild card. j/k lol

When I had good starting hands and went all in, I wouldn't know if I won or not til after the hand. The cards wouldn't show while in play.

I've seen this happen and just assumed it to be the computer being to slow to display what was happening. Only seen it when I was playing multiple tables. Like WVH said, you can still see which cards you have by hovering your mouse over your avitar location.

One time someone bet and the chips wouldnt be visable. It was weird but the pot stayed right the whole time.
