Hi. At Sunday 1k Highroller (GRAND TOURNAMENT id 97828636) I had 95741 chips (starting with 20000) at the moment the game was stopped due to some technical trouble on Winamax.

Still, I got only 2509 euros, while short stacks, with any chips left, still got back at least 1000 euros. The game cancellation was caused by the room, but you still make big stacks pay for the trouble on your side, which seems illogical at the very least. I find this decision totally unfair.

That sounds like a fair reimbursement, as per ICM calculations. Not sure why you think short stacks take away from bi stacks n terms of refunds ?? Prize pool is divided in 2, half is split among players left equally, the other half is split %ually according to how big their stack is.

Btw, I got refunded for the main quite nicely so Im still a happy customer

I had to reopen the table to fix the problem a few hands later. I was also playing on other poker sites without any problem, so it was definitely not my internet connection.
Hello theRealOmahaKid,

Sorry to hear about this dude.

This problem is most likely caused by internet delays or by a software bug. I would advise that you reinstall the software and if this situation should occur again, please let me know.

It's slow and buggy, so you often miss the action after been sitting out.
Hi there,

If you're connection to the table breaks and you are gone long enough to be sat out, any delay between clicking on "Sit in" and then actually being sat in is like due to the same connection disruption that caused you to be disconnected in the first place.

Hello fromIraq,

I'm sorry that you're not happy with the reimbursement you've received.

We feel that the fairest way of determining the chip stacks is to take the stacks from the time at which the incident began, and not the time at which the tournament is stopped.

If you give me your table name (via PM if you prefer) I can verify that all is in order for you although as aseHigh has said, your reimbursement looks to be about right.

Hi there Robert12345,

I'm afraid that due to the new legislation, as a resident of the UK you are not permitted to create an account and play for real money on Winamax.

Should the legislation change in the future, we will of course be happy to welcome you on our platform.

Please accept my apologies for the delay in replying.

Dave, I say it again.

Why can't you create an official thread for Winamax in general?
See other sites: http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/28/internet-poker/

The "Series" threads could then be created and used for.... well the series.
Edit: could you also please hint when the next series are coming? No dates needed but like, month? Thanks.

Hello randomuser1,

You can simply use this thread for any general queries you may have.

Concerning the next series... I'm afraid I can't give anything away at the moment. I'll let you know as soon as I'm able!

Hi there,

All UK player accounts will be closed and the balances paid out to the bank account registered on the account. This payment will include the monetary value of any Miles on the account.

If however you have already spent your Miles on a bonus and do not want to wait for this process to be finalised, please send an email to support@winamax.com who can arrange for your cash out to be done. This however will not count any unused Miles still on the account.

Just logged in and noticed my theme settings have automatically changed.
Now Cards settings are set to "Wam" which is absolutely horrible I can't play with that for real, and I can't even choose what I had earlier (4 color classic deck) - in fact i can't choose any other card setting.

Also, the last month or two my client is unable to update itself. When I launch it message says "An error has occured during the update process. You can still launch our software and play". Clicking "Play anyway" is the only way to login. I tried to uninstall the program completely but the message appears again after reboot and reinstall.

Hi there,

If a regular reinstall hasn't fixed the issue, I would advise you to create a completely clean installation.

To do this, you'll need to uninstall Winamax and then use a program such as CCleaner to totally wipe it from your computer.

After you've done this, please try installing again.

It is probably also worth doing the same for Adobe Air.

Let me know if this sorts it out for you.

Dave,

I'm an romanian (Romania) resident playing on Winamax and next month I will be traveling to Barcelona and London.

Can you please tell me if I will be having problems playing on the site from those two locations?

Is Winamax blocked on an IP level or I will be able to access it and play as I play from Romania right now?

Thanks!

Hi there,

You are permitted to play on Winamax from any location where the local legislation allows you to play on a site licenced in France.

You should verify the local legislation before attempting to connect to Winamax.

So when it is free to check, it should check
'fold or check' hotkey never checks.

I can't play like this...

Thanks for bringing this to our attention. Hopefully this should be corrected soon, however I can't specify when.

For the time being you will have to use F2 in order to check.

Sorry for the delay in getting an answer to you!


Aside from that, you may be interested in the latest improvement to our software which makes multi-tabling as easy as pie (I'm guessing that you're a multi-tabler). Check it out here.

Hi 7a.m.@hu,

I'm afraid I don't have any updates on this issue.

As I originally said, it is planned to correct this feature however I am unable to specify when it will be done.

Why do you rigg the fast fold games?...statistical on my decent sample size you rigg the games...why when i go all in on any street with at least 80% equity,before dealing the last cards,your software freeze for a fraction of second...and always when this happens is a **** bad beat?why players can't see nowhere an analys of your RNG?i really want to see an analyse of your RNG on a decent sample size...i'm a **** micro grinder and in 2014 i played at least 1.5 million on pokerstars...and at least 500k on winamax in the last 2 months....and more than 5 millions life time...but...what i.ve seen in the last 2 months on winamax...how you force statistic and math...well...this is absolutely ridiculous...why fast fold hands are not automated saved in pc?
Please,show us an analyse of your RNG...i;m pretty sure here are also other players who would like to see it...
Thank you and sorry for my poor english!
Cheers!
