Has been running VERY slow for me. Cashier takes a while to load - many times longer than usual, but it does come up.

Tourney registrations are also VERY slow. Hope they aren't about to crash. Interesting that they are only showing 54k active players. Usually MUCH higher on weekend daytimes.

Yes. I was in the middle of a HU S&G when it went screwy. It takes a minute and a half to get your next hand. Considering I sat down at a HU game because I was in the mood for a lot of action it was pretty sucky.

After fifteen minutes I said screw it and shoved with K/9. He barely had me covered yet called with 5/9. He hit the 5 to win.

I was just glad it was over.

I sent PokerStars a complaint.

I've seen this happen before when I was in ring games. But at least you can leave a ring game with your chip stack. Being locked in sucks.

The daily 50k freeroll tourney just started and cards are a 'little' slow, but not that bad.

Looks like pokerstars is down. Nice time for it too. Three way all in, 9s, Ks, and AQ. Flop is 7, 10, Q. Two hearts on board also.

FYI, I sent a complaint to Stars. The operator there send me an email apologizing, and he gave me directions for filing for a refund.

Today I got this:
