I'm currently playing an empire poker daily $500 freeroll and am doing pretty well. One of the reasons I'm doing well started with me being disconnected. I got disconnected and was kinda mad about that, my internet provider sucks. So I waited a bit seeing if Empire would be able to reconnect itself. It couldn't, so I shut down my connection altogether which involved the software for the provider getting stuck open and about 5 minutes of trying to get it to close. After that, I reconnected to the internet, got on Empire, but it wouldn't take me to my table. All of this time I was already chip leader by a lot at my table so I wasn't worried about my stack, and blinds were still 10-20, so I closed Empire once again and opened it again. Finally it decides to take me to my table. And what do I see waiting for me? AA! Haha. I pushed raise as fast as I could because I didn't know how long they'd been up there waiting for me. I then proceeded to take a big pot. :)

Anyway, I thought that was cool. Coming back to AA from a disconnection. I'm doing way well in this tourney at the moment, not like the competition's hard though! :)

I have had that kinda thing happen.

Came back saw AA but it wouldn't let me bet it and it folded my hand.

Same thing happened again within 10 mins but I connected back into the big blind. AA again cept it got folded round to me.

Annoying when that happens ;]

Heh, that's always fun. Gotta love pocket aces, especially as a 'first' hand.

I used to have bloody 56k connection.
When the timer got down to half, it would fold me because my computer was slow and ihad already ran out of time.
