surely everyone is getting blinded out?

pokerstars is losing HUNDREDS THOUSANDS!!!!!!!!! MILLIONS????

nope, not everyone....

Nah all tourneys are set on break, I logged in for like 5 seconds before being kicked out again.

I had a shortstack all in, and was chip leader in a few 18 man sngs

If this is true then there will be a lot of backup restoring done.
Probably hardware failure not hacker, but if support has no ETA, then its probably not random routers fault (it would be replaced in 1 minute, not to mention they have those redundant).
Another feasible theory is that it is haloween trick. First they put up scary avatars in lobby, now they go offline with all your moneys and no ETA. Buhuhuuu scary!

this is ****ing bull****

i hope your right. it let me look at the table for a minute, but not log in. i went from 5th to 10th. now i can't even observe.

I was online and the majority of people had sat out and were being blinded out, then I got kicked out but I fear some people may still be in stealing my blinds

Shaun Deeb crashed PokerStars - confirmed.

holy **** its gele haas!!! does kos met de snor play poka too?

i remember you from babygrande

PokerStars hates money.

I also thoght halloween trick, but it would be a sick trick tbh costing everyone money....

FYP, he wins too much, and plays to well, they caught onto him.

I'm really looking forward to getting on right after they get back up so I can have regulars in every single seat.

Any updates PokerStarsJeff?

did the same thing in the 32k

MC_BuckWurst plays the poka, Kos met de Snor is playing with little children

Scotty spilled his coffee on the servers again.

The connecting to network window came up while I was playing, but oddly my cash game tables kept running. But lobby stopped updating and anytime I clicked on it, got a no local object message.

When my tables emptied out (also oddly, the empty seats did not say empty seat) I logged off, tried to get back on, same no local object message when I clicked on anything in the lobby.

Assumed it was a problem on my end, unistalled and reinstalled Pstars, now its hung up on the Downloading Files window of the Pokerstars update.

I think I probably cleared Platinum Star status while I as playing today (last time I checked during the session was 27 vpp's short) but don't know for sure.

Fun Fun Fun.

yessir

ahahahahahaa

THIS SUCKS

Tourneys are set on break I believe.

I wonder if I'm still holding KK when I get back...

I've had internet mysteriously off all day and then as soon as it works, pokerstars crashes. Typical...

Glad I checked 2+2 before smashing the screen.

This might be of assistance..............
