So that's what was happening in the tourney's. I was in a 1K MTT and got disconnected. It appeared to me it was everyone not just 1 game/table. Hope carbon gets a handle on this quick so others don't do same thing or attempt the same thing.

Pretty serious issue - according to what I've read it is possible to disrupt other users connections on various websites by jamming the traffic during a critical pot. I have had multiple issues with this at Full Flush but I think it is probably innocent but I will be noting who is at my table when it happens from now on. HSDB article says Full Tilt and other sites have experienced similar problems, hope someone solves this issue.

Things like this make me hesitant to play online, it's bad enough at a brick and mortar casino..

yeah, honestly im suprised this doesn't happen more often. for those who don't know, it's called a DDOS attack, and there not that hard to do...it's simply a computer sending tons of feeds to another computer to temporarily short it out. Although this looks like it would have to be the works of a group of players in this case.
