Hey Everyone,

am sure we have all seen strange things at the tables... and this just happen to me...

was playing on a .COM Poker After Dark Freeroll...

one of the players (gjw55) had 57,987 in chips... however, he was not listed in the ranking... as 1st place...

"Strange Anomalies"

Is that sort of like a double negative?

As for the situation you speak of.......looks like you're playing in space. Maybe there was a quantum fissure in the event horizon of a nearby black hole.

letting your cookies and temp internet files build up on your computer can do stuff like that.

I had the pokerstars lobby showing 60+ people waiting at every table. Support had me send them a screenshot, then had me delete the cookies/tempfiles off my computer and it went away. They even sent me $10 for me taking the time to send the screenshot, even though it was my fault.

I've seen this happen as well - and if I remember correctly it was the PAD freeroll. A player I didn't recognize was at the top of the leaderboard and I also recall seeing a player in the final table that wasn't listed on the leaderboard.

and I'm sure it was well worth it to them... in software dev., good customer feed back is really hard to come by...
We often get feed back such as "It doesn't work"...
Boy is that ever helpful. I only maintain around 3.5 million lines of code :eek:
If I know what "It" is, I at least have a fighting chance :rolleyes:

I was dealt only one hold card at Titan once. And i've seen the pot pushed accross the table before the river card showed (at Pacific which is glitchy as f***).

bodog has a recurring glitch where a player will be moved to a table & show zero chips. Every bet they make will have the all-in sound accompany it, so you have no idea how many chips they have backing up their bets.

It always (the 5-6 times I've seen it) fixes itself after they play a hand, but the first hand they're there is brutal. Along with the zero chip phenomenon, is the no name annoyance that occurs more regularly, where a play will be at the table & you can see the chips, but they will have no name.

The dialog box will show "( ) wins" instead of a name.

Both are strange, anomalous, unusual and even out of the ordinary. Heck, they're even atypical, bizarre, abnormal and extraordinary.

i have had this happen to me before. Not the best option when u got a decent hand to. When u do it ur icon changes though to some sort of thing i forget what exactly. Bodog might have done it on purpose

I found the Titan picture - it was 1 card on the flop, not one hold card.

Space is a scary place to play poker. YOU TRY GETTING A READ ON A DUDE WITH THREE HEADS! On top of that, you KNOW aliens have mind reading abilities that make bluffing sooooo much more difficult!
