I lagged like **** yesterday. I started counting the times I "disconnected" by pen and paper and it was 22 times. On 3 separate occasions at least 3+ of my 9 person tables disconnected when I didn't. I stole a total of 4 pots with min bets, and was the victim of losing when having monsters twice.
It's sad that I've gotten to notice when people disconnect (the signs of it) and now incorporate that into my "strategy." (and to those who say, zomg I can't believe you'd do that, you don't think my opponents are doing it to me? And you don't think tilting the **** out of your opponent because they lose to a disconnected min bet is super +EV?)
I am not a shill for Global, although a shill would say that. So choose to believe what you wish on that topic. And the second accusation is so outlandish, I am not even sure its worth addressing, but with that said, if I this was my first time winning, and I wanted to "protect Global" I don't believe my 2+2 postings would do a good job of keeping afloat or drowning a company.
What I am a shill for is a legal positive online experience for US players. If that is Global, great. If its not, great point the way to the next place to go.
Beyond that RikaKazak, I would appreciate you not turning to Ad hominem attacks. They are unnecessary and unhelpful. With that said, I do understand your frustration disconnecting that many times. That's insane. I am sorry about that, although, I know that doesn't fix it, but I do wish that wasn't your or anyone's experience.
I am only expressing that I haven't had the disconnect issues that everyone else seems to be having. And when I have had the disconnects, only once did it ever really impact a decision I was making on a hand I was in. And on Sunday (meaning 8/20/17), I never disconnected once, and only noticed it in one player that it looked like it was a problem for them. I wish I remember their username, maybe it was your account.
And as far as adjusting your strategy to how the game is playing on any topic, imo you would be crazy not to adjust accordingly.
