Yeh its down again.

Ffs, does anyone know if PartyPoker refunds Sit&Go's in cases like this?

The last two times the site went down iv been refunded.

It seems to be up now, for me anyway. It also seems as though I've already been refunded but I'm not 100% sure...

You'll get confirmation emails.

Im back up as well.

Party has bad downs syndrome.

I got a call yesterday asking if my Gladiator promo attempt had been affected by the server crash - I had to answer no as it wouldn't have mattered either way now, but I think it was nice that they took the time to do this...

Just hoping they get to the bottom of the problem soon.

Hey guys. Ive not played on party since the glory days. Wonder how the SNG traffic is there? Do they have DON's? Are they soft? Any info would be great.

Thanks.

At peak time the traffic is OK at the 11s/22s/55s, but almost no traffic at the 33s anymore (I can't speak for the higher limits). After midnight and before 5pm (UK time) the traffic is much lower than it used to be and not really enough to be worth playing unless you simultaneously play 3+ limits and/or only 6-8 table.

One thing to note though: if you are considering Party SNGs then I would wait until December 1st as the Gladiator promo is making the games ridiculously reg-infested atm...

Thanks much Juk

The emailed summaries are most of the time corrupted. There's often a difference between the original hh and the emailed summaries.

I also did noticed that pots get rounded in the summaries where in the hh for example the pot is 3182.5 in the summaries the pot is 3182. I guess this only happens in all in situations

Is anyone else completely underwhelmed by the 5 Star Poker Challenge and the VIP Gift Accumulator?

+1. Maybe Party wants all the grinders to go shopping and enjoy Christmas instead!

Well I'm looking on the bright side: at least the SNGs might not have 7+ regs per game like this month!

I'm beginning to see the value in low RB-value luck-based promos now...

HU PLO SnG 109s & 33s please.

I change my request to HU PLO SNG 3s because I am not going to play higher on a network that randomly disconnects.

Am I going mad or is there a problem with the hand-by-hand implementation in Party MTTs?

Let's say there are two tables left, and the tournament's running hand by hand. The hand begins. On Table 1, the hand completes swiftly and the message comes up that we're waiting for all other tables. So far, so good. On Table 2, the hand takes a bit longer. Eventually a player is knocked out. The software hangs around for a while to calculate where he finished. Fine.

Problem is (so far as I can see from watching several bubbles today) that while that placing calculation is being performed, another hand takes place on Table 1. It's as though Table 1 sees two events (hand A and then eventually hand B) and Table 2 sees two events (hand A and then the player being knocked out). Both tables then play hand C with action continuing hand by hand until there's another finish. Essentially, one table has seen three hands, while the other has seen two and a player finishing.

This is surely not true hand by hand?

Can anyone else verify this? I'm sure I'm not imagining it but I can't see why on earth it hasn't been noticed before now.

I wonder, too, whether it's connected to the procedure whereby when you hit the final table the players already on the table play an extra hand before they're joined by everyone else.

Yes, it's one of many bugs, so be sure to email Support with your details. Another MTT bug is one player sometimes pay both the big and small blind, usually when a new table with two players is opened after the tournament has already started then a third player joins in. Like other PartyPoker bugs, the horrible "feature" of a micro stack winning the bounty of a bigger stack in a multi-way pot still has not been fixed.

Thunderbolts & Nash Equilibria - can you please send me the tournament ids and details of instances when these issues have occurred?

CONFIRMED!

I'll PM you my screenname. It's happened in every single MTT in the past week where I had more than one table open to watch the bubble (or any other hand by hand stage). I never noticed it before but I don't generally play many MTTs. It sounds as though it was already known by your other customers.

Is it DD today @ party? Third time today.....



a bad place to play at.

Mii

im getting a whole bunch of DC's

They run that promotion nearly every day.

Anyone else get a promo email about a bonus?....
