I have played Revolution during the last about two years, including some Juicy, and these sites had many times they disconnected (sometimes it was bad e.g. a couple of days, or e.g. five hours straight), but I never lost money because of it with my new regular laptop computer (that wasn't the case with my old computer that wasn't able to process fast enough). I was reconnected and was able to act, only sometimes it was about a second or two but it made it. But now that I play at Juicy, I got disconnected today 3 times in 15 minutes (nothing new at Revolution), one during a hand that got folded (in a medium sized pot). It got folded not because I didn't get reconnected in time, but because the action buttons didn't appear in time (didn't appear at all). That did not happen to me during the last about two years at Revolution (with Revolution software). And during my old computer times the action buttons did usually appear, if I remember all correctly, but were frozen too long (were there but were not functioning).
There is/was about 560 players logged in, Saturday evening (EU time). I had no problems at Juicy when there were 800 players, nor during my 50+ sessions at Juicy before this return similar to my old computer times (when I had problems at ipoker also, but they also had a lot of problems here similarly, but my old computer was too slow to recover fast enough).
This is the situation for me at this time and my computer is a bit short of two years old and has win10 in it, but neither is the reason (sometimes Windows can produce problems as it doesn't say what has changed, it just changing stuffs when it updates, and similar things in theory can happen for other softwares updating auto. Windows defender could be there and on when it didn't use to be, or whatever, and could e.g. slow things).
I had problems at Stars last year during two weeks (that were looking like the same disconnect problems, including all the way to timing out -- folding the hand -- that happened to some other players there also during that time from different countries) but it was "on my side" and I needed to restart my modem or so (the hardware between my laptop and the wall), that was strange but fixed the problem. So, not 100% this deepened problem isn't on my side, but I didn't have that problem at Revolution even during that bad two weeks at Stars (when I couldn't get on many internet sites/pages either, depending on where they were, or they loaded very very slowly). The timing seems just perfect for this problem (though it often does even in real life and is just variance).
