Last week Bovada went down in the AM hours pacific time. I was registered for some tournaments and did not want to lose my buy-ins so I called support. They said that the whole site was down and the tourneys would be cancelled so I would not lose my buy-ins. This is where it gets weird....while the site was unresponsive, I could still watch the cash games (would not let me register to play them though). On each one of the active cash games, there were still 2 to 3 players. Their play was very cut and dry with a lot of value bets and folds preflop...went back and fourth, back and fourth with no real winners. Very strange to watch such bland play; meanwhile, chat was still working and you could see others trying to pop into the room and chat some before getting pushed out due to the outage. There were many chats asking, "how did you guys get in to play?," and "hey, say something so we know you're not bots!" It was very strange!!!

Anyway, did anybody else notice this event and also think that it was a little strange??? I hope it doesn't indicate what it seems to indicate. Anybody??

I have seen that happen before, but I'm not sure why.

Screenshots or vid?
If it happens again grab some images at least.
Crazy peculiar though.
