This has happened more than once! And the Internet was turned off and the electricity was cut off. It's a shame when you're the first in terms of chips!

I watched a poker stream, the streamer collected a flash and at that moment his Internet was turned off, while he switched to another provider he did not have time and lost, I also had this, but I did not lose a lot of money because of this

I have lost internet service a few times close to the bubble. It is a terrible feeling and all you can do is wait it out.

Sim... isso realmente é uma merda quando acontece, especialmente quando você está em um grande MTT ou high(er) stakes quando você está em uma ótima posição, mas foi desconectado ou a energia acabou.
O poder é uma solução fácil e os cartazes anteriores forneceram uma solução barata. A perda de conectividade com a Internet é especial.. existe um site ou dois que lista serviços irregulares, servidores inativos... etc. ELES! Se a situação acontecer novamente e tenho certeza que acontecerá se você for um bom jogador, você ficará feliz por ter feito isso. como aconteceram.;)
I've had the message you are disconnected! and I was connected to the internet, this in the bubble, and I couldn't access play and it was usually with AA, KA pair. then exit the App and restart. when I returned the table was absent. and hand had already passed. and it was not once again that this case happened.

It is so frustrating to have these outages happen, especially at the bubble like that. But I try to remember just how luck we actually are; can you believe we are playing each other around the world instantly through wireless devices the way we are? I would have never believed something like this was possible when I was a kid, yet here we are. Amazing!

I think many players have encountered such a situation as a power outage. During the game. Of course, this situation is depressing, but no one can probably compensate you for this.

I think it's useless to have internet if you don't have electricity.

Oh boy back in the day it was a Challenge! I'm I'd have my phone ready to log right in as soon as I had to! Nowadays it's alright though GG poker can be a bit annoying 🤔 guess we got to make the best of it!

There was a case when I registered for a PKO tournament with a buy-in of $ 11, and the Internet was turned off, then turned on when I had less BB left, of course, I flew out, it was such an annoying force majeure.

There is a power outage or a network failure, as I was playing on a pc, I always had a laptop next to it and a mobile Internet connected via a smartphone. Since I play on a smartphone, I have no problem with anything because in the absence of access to the fixed network, it switches immediately to the mobile one. Power grid failures happen, but rarely. If you have access to mobile Internet, you can protect yourself by playing on a smartphone or tablet, laptop and, if necessary, have a larger powerbank with which you can top up mobile devices, then disconnecting from the network is not a problem and you can finish the tournament. In Poland, in the region where I live in Silesia, which is heavily urbanized, breakdowns happen very rarely, usually after storms and interruptions of transmission lines, fixed-line internet also works stably and breaks due to failures are also not frequent, and the mobile network always remains very well developed .

Hi Questioner! I completely empathize, I understand your situation! I know this situation! It happened many times that the internet (digi) went out before a paid place. And when the internet came back, I won nothing. This can be quite annoying. In the future, I'm thinking about switching internet service providers. I hope this won't happen again. good luck.

Oh, yes! It is very painful when the monitor screen goes out at the most crucial moment. When the home Internet disappears, I solve this issue quickly by connecting to the Internet from my smartphone. With the loss of electricity is more difficult, since I have not changed the batteries of my laptop for a long time. I'm thinking of buying an exercise bike to generate electricity at a crucial moment.:D
I also need to change my battery

I've had this many times, and the most annoying thing is when you're in the lead in the final stage of the tournament and suddenly the lights go out.:LOL::ROFLMAO::mad::devilish::poop:

Has anyone ever had problems with a lack of electricity or internet outage near the bubble or in the bubble. I already had a problem with electricity close to the bubble, when it came back 3 hours later it had not been able to enter the bubble, Wednesday 04/20/022 it was the internet's turn, which came back only the next day, but it was already in the bubble, I finished in ninth, seventeen won
My internet is working fine and I haven't had a problem so far. Cheers

Unfortunately, no one is immune from this. If you play at high stakes, you must provide backup options for connecting to the game. In any case, there is always a mobile phone at hand that has a certain battery charge and Internet access.

Hi.
At least two or three times such an unfortunate situation happened to me. I was very angry and disappointed. Now, in such cases, I continue the game on my smartphone.

Do you live in a place where the power goes out all the time?
