It's not "something" that happens to certain people, its site wide. The issue is that recreational player with 1.3hrs per week are posting in this thread as if their experience were the same as those who play 50 per week.
I've put several hundred hours into Bovada over the past 2 years, and have never once had a disconnect that wasn't when the population/site as a whole was having problems (or wasn't attributed to my ISP).

Is there card pecking or team veiwer going on ?
Not exactly sure what you're asking, but if you're talking about collusion, then I would report it to Bovada. Don't know what stakes you're playing, but there was recently a big collusion bust in high-stakes PLO8 a couple of weeks ago, so it wouldn't hurt sending an email to Bovada with hand numbers and such if you believe there's still something fishy going on.

I have this issue on my macbook every once in awhile. I have to run the installer again and somehow that fixes the issue. Don't have any other suggestions unfortunately. GL

And we wonder why bovada is such a good site?

I should have been more informative and less argumentative, I apologize.

It's not happening to everyone on the site. There are many of us who have been on Bovada for a long time, rarely having abnormal connection issues. An abnormal connection issue would be one that doesn't include the entire site crashing or our own internet issues.

For me personally and my group of friends, we have only found one issue that is easily avoided. When playing tournaments, opening the tournament lobby from the table can trigger a crash if action from that table or another pops up while clicking the lobby tab. We avoid this by leaving lobbies open or opening them directly from the main lobby. I am unaware if this issue has been fixed. I only play tournaments on Sunday. Never have had abnormal issues playing cash.

There may be other connection issues that I am unaware of so I cannot help with those. People should understand that this is not something that happens to everyone, it is in fact something that happens to certain people (dunno why).

I suggest paying close attention to your connectivity as well as what you're clicking when you disconnect. You may be able to avoid or resolve what's happening completely.

Anyone recently done the bank wire method? If so any issues and average days it takes ? Any fees with currency conversion ?

Currency exchange rates change on a daily basis, it may just be business days, but there is going to be no great answer for you on that.

You will argument that every limit having a 20+ tables available all of sudden is not a sign of a major disconnection but simply a few guy's having badly setup internet?

Have you heard of being the exception?

Bovada is experimenting server issues lately, its a fact. Stop trying to be interesting. If you are not getting any issues it does not mean the servers are not having problems. There's been many post in this thread about issues and i have seen them myself and have a lot of players complaining to me about those same short disconnections and periods where you can't rebuy or join any tables.

It might not be possible to see those small bugs @ tournaments but on cashgames if theres any kind of server issues, we see it.

True. Guess beer question is do many of you use bank wire vs courier check as it has a higher payout limit and no possibility of check bouncing? So say you'd request 4000 would you get the whole 4000 in your bank account is bank wire is choosen?

@MX210 I don't want you to scare away new players by saying everyone has the issues that you're having, it's just not true. You're creating rumors, not sharing facts. Saying that "every limit" has 20+ tables tells us everything we need to know about your statements.

Having a reasonable discussion with you clearly isn't going to happen. You may now have the last word. GL sir.

Well said. I have no issues. I know others do but it's not universal.

If other people are having issues, then its the servers. You're just not playing when the server issues happen. It's not constant 24/7 disconnects. Its random and they have been happening way more than they should these last few weeks.

Again, everytime such disconnection happens the lobby has tons of available table right after. It makes it a fact that most players are experimenting them when they happen.

There is definitely a connection issue with this site, I'm one of the few mainly its on my side, but the amount of dc/s I see on a daily basis (talking other players not myself), I know there is an underlying issue, sure some of them may have crap net, but it can't be everyone.

There are a bunch of riggies who use the same logic. "Tons of other people see the same things I do on this site. My friend lost to quads twice yesterday.There's alot of posts by many different players saying this site is rigged... coincidence?"

I experience d/c issues regularly and I play from multiple different connections. I noticed over time that the d/c issues almost always happen when I have done something from my end as simple as opening 2+2. Actually I get dc'd quite often the second I click my home page button (2p2) or open my email. What I'm getting at is that most of my dc's happen in reaction to something I have done, Though maybe once a week I get dc's out of the blue. My poker client shouldn't dc when I open my web browser or spotify, but it does... on multiple different internet connections (one is 4g, one is cable, and one is dsl). I don't know if that means it's my fault or theirs, but hopefully it helps us figure out what the issue is as maybe it has to do with the systems running the poker client and not the servers.

The simple fact that you find yourself superior to other people and call them riggies shows you have no knowledge of online poker. There's rooms that have been found to be rigged(just last week a long standing network small Asian network, its been kept on the down low but every ROW affiliate knows about the room) and there's been superuser scandals. Yes, some people are going overboard with accusations but making fun of someone because he thinks it could be rigged when there's been a lot of shadiness in online poker is out of line.

And if you think opening spotify or an http page(taking a massive 128kbps of your internet connection) can disconnect you and hundred of other players (that are not linked to you in any way), you are completely off the chart nuts my friend.

I don't want to get into this but you are a very new to this. Still a micro player. I and the players im talking about have been around for 5+ years and have played all the sites. So when im telling you that bovada is disconnecting for hundreds of people at the same time and not allowing rebuys or the joining of tables, its because that is what's happening and no matter how hard you fight this, its still true.


Now can you please drop it or do i need to record a video of bovada disconnecting simultaneously on 3 different people's computer while they are grinding other sites with no issues + the lobby suddently spawning a ton of tables at 100+ because everyone disconnected ? Do we need to have a 10k bet on this?
This complaining is insane, all i did was add to a few disconnect post and now we have the "im special" brigade trying to be cool

edit: why do you even call people names? Your profile says 100nl and you can barely beat 50nl.. and why am i even replying? jeez. You're good.

Yes, I have issues too. Sometimes is just disconnects, sometimes when I open browser or e-mail, and sometimes message pops up that " poker client is no longer working" and closes it out for me.

It does the same on either laptop or desktop. ( Same internet though)

From the southeast.

Edit: Don't know what to do, so I keep other laptop with the poker client open, ready to hit sign in in case I'm disconnected in a big spot

If you are mid hand when it happens you can disable then quickly enable wifi and it will reconnect you before the hand fold most of the time, but it is of no help if you aren't mid hand.

I might have to take back what I said, was playing HUSNG and my opponent disconnected twice in a span of 5 minutes. Could be coincidental though.

Are any mac users having issues?

A big +1 to all of this. I have experienced the exact same thing with regards to disconnects. Every disconnect/crash I have had has either been my ISP dropping or I do something like opening the lobby or reviewing a hand history that would trigger the disconnect/crash.

I would love to see some proof of all of your claims. You love to go on long rants in this thread and claim things to be facts but have never provided anything of substance to any of your claims. Just because you believe this is happening to everyone doesn't make it true. You may be right with your long rants but until you or someone else provides some proof you are just an angry idiot ranting on an internet forum.

If this works then I would not think it is your connection that is the problem because your laptop will be drawing from the same connection as your desktop, correct?
