If this is the far superior software the old software must have been complete shite, because the current software can only be described as shite, I play there often as they have some Aussie specific games, and every time I get shifted to another table you get auto folded, and then it takes about 6-7 hands before the auto fold turns off and that is if you are lucky, my record is 21 hands auto folded.
And before anyone asks, Yes I do turn it off after each hand then it automatically comes back on.

That`s a pretty bad problem, Zorba. I haven`t seen that myself.

And yes, you are right, their software was dire before (and is therefore better now).

I have reported this to their support 5 times now, but as yet no reply, first email sent 3 months ago.
It's so frustrating knowing you had the nuts and couldn't do anything about it.

Yep. It`s a shame. Nick must have put time and effort into this, but that`s the way it looks.

"No Americans" takes out around 40% of the members.
"No priors" probably knocks out the same number again.
The other 20% can`t get it to work.
