I also am experiencing this. It's semi-annoying. As far as the randomness... I had my cards greyed out DURING a hand, and I still won the pot and I wasn't experiencing any connection issues that I'm aware of.

I know how the flush freeroll tickets are assigned, but anyone know how the Black Diamond Poker Open satellite tickets are awarded?

I did not get a free ticket for this event. I have 6 useless New Player Freeroll tickets, and tickets for the 4 BDPO event's that I've quali'd for.

Lol, you're not out yet though. They will put some $ in your account after a little while and you will inevitably run it up and you'll be back.

I've been getting the disconnect thing too. One of them was with 12 left in a MTT and it caused me to check fold a made hand and I eventually busted out 9th. Total bs. Glad it isnt just my connection

Were you taking notes by chance? CobaltBlue reported a few weeks ago that he thinks the crashes are directly related to taking ntoes.

MTTs, SNGs, cash games? I haven't had any crashes but I play almost all cash games. I wonder if it's related to the MTT lobby thing they supposedly fixed a while back?

Yeah, as I've experienced it more, it seems like the note thing was coincidence. Probably crashing on me once every 4-5 hours at this point. Only other thing that I've thought is that it could be HI related, but HI itself doesn't crash...just Bovada.

The especially annoying part is that it's hit and miss with regard to which tables return when you start it back. I'll usually be playing four and maybe one comes back. This means I lose my stacks and spot at tables. This also means lost rake for Bodog since I just quit my session last night when it happened.

I play cash games. No notes taking but HI. Cobaltblue could be right on that.

Conspiracy mode ON...I've noticed some weird screen flashes and cursor "thinking" moments while the Bodog client is open. I wouldn't be surprised at all if they are searching for known processes and either doing something if found or their software is so poorly written that it crashes when something is found.

I've been noticing the lag more when reloading chips than note taking.

Just curious but has most NY players quit playing on bovada? I pretty much haven't played much there since we can't even get checks and wires and our only option is the Western Union and Moneygram as a withdrawal.

Yeah, this isn't disconnecting. This is the software saying it has to force close.

What are you talking about? Don't you guys get checks? I know NY is the only state that bovada can't send checks to. I know there is 1 free a month up to $3000 for bovada.

I think anyone that runs a high balance on bovada would suck because you would have to WU withdraw it as oppose to requesting wire/checks. I love requesting checks as oppose to WU.

I really don't understand why anyone likes using WU as an option as oppose to checks. The max you can cashout is $2000 only by Western Union.

I think I know what disconnecting looks like. You can't click any buttons or make any actions, and sometimes you bet but the timer just runs down and makes you check. Then the whole screen will go dark and it will say something like "you are disconnected. Please try to reconnect." and in a few seconds the table will load back up and it will tell you you are reconnected if the problem persists please contact our representatives.... Has been happening briefly off and on for the past week.
