Nightmare

That is an absolute nightmare. Sorry friend. It is something I am always fearful of when I’m playing and there are storms in our area. We have power outages quite often during big storms. I cross my fingers and hope it doesn’t happen!!

Stay Safe

internet disconection

what will u do if you are in the middle of the big pot or on the bubble of very great pool prize tournaments?

it happens to me a lot and I lost that game, it feels awful , especially the times when I am in bad beat period
This is happening maybe because you don't have a reliable connection. You should get yourself a new connection with a fast and reliable network. Check out this website to find the best wifi and routers for a fast and reliable connection.

Its not my internet,for me its the terrible software on intertops.I cant even use the download from them because it wont stay downloaded on my computer,so i use the no download.I am usually dropped about every half hr,and have to sign back in and by then my hand is folded.This week i had pocket As and was dropped,by the time i signed back in of course my hand was folded.I was making a deep run,finished 10th ,it was only 2 hands before i went out that my As were folded.It sure might of made a difference in the out come of my game if that would of not happened.That was the last straw for me,no more intertops for me.

I play low stakes, so if lose my connection it wouldn't kill me.
My best option atm would be to switch to my mobile internet.
But if I was playing higher stakes where a single buy-in is worthy more than the price of a second internet connection (which would be something like 15-20$) you bet I would have a 2nd and probably a 3rd option plus a better mobile internet and a no-break (UPS).

The only thing to do is to reconnect.

I had moments when the internet connection was terrible and I was on the bubble, it's upsetting, because you are losing for reasons that are beyond your control.
But this is not a reason to be very sad, it is important to improve the game and move on.

This problem is always annoying in games. This happens at a crucial moment or throughout the day. When I see this problem in the game, I try to play for the whole stack at once.)) How many times has it happened, you put half the bank and the discount on the network throws you out of the game.

The internet connection problem can be very outrageous. Especially when one is well in the tournament and there is no connection for hours. And by the time you get back to the tournament, you barely have any chips or you're out. This is very bad.

Have you ever lost internet connection well in the middle of a game? How about in the middle of a huge hand you know you were going to win? :mad:

Story of my life happens all the time internet goes out with a big hand and I lose a good piece of change. Someone else just wrote internet vs. live Casino, well at the Casino that would never happen not in a million years. I am pretty sure most pros prefer live vs. internet. I have a big problem with media and computer/internet, there is no more privacy on this planet. Capo1014

Many times I had connection problems and I preferred to give up the game than to annoy myself and the other players waiting for your action, so it seems fair! This thing didn't happen to me in big tournaments where the stakes would have been high, I'm not pro- I don't get there :), maybe then I would have tried to finish the game ..

If you have a huge hand , it does not mean that you will win, I have lost many times with AA, flush.:)

How about an MTT I'm in second place and then I'm down to 1.5BB's when I finally reconnect.

Yes it happened to me, in my city the Internet service is very bad and this happens frequently sometimes not with big hands but during a tournament and this causes a lot of frustration

Internet

My internet often goes down or the speed drops a couple of times the internet went down during the game because I was very angry.

Hello.
Of course, this has happened to every player and sometimes it is very unpleasant, but there is always a way out. For example, use your mobile internet on your smartphone.

Internet disconnections happen. Fortunately for me it have not happened during big hand so far. Generally my internet at home is very stable but anyway i always have my phone nearby so that i can switch to it in case of problems.

I already had such cases several times, including with aces in my hands, and on the flop an ace and loss of connection, and due to the fault of the PS.
The most shocking incident for me happened when I raised on the river, got an allin and couldn't call, my connection with PS was suddenly lost, and again the site is to blame.
