If you search this thread for connection problems you'll find several examples of people experiencing similar issues.
About five minutes ago, my Internet went down for about 20 seconds. To say that Party's software did not handle the situation elegantly is an understatement.
Once my connection was back, Party's "Establishing Connection" message disappeared and I was able to choose to sit-back in and was even able to observe chat and others play in real-time. However, whenever there was a new hand I was auto sat-out and did not receive cards.
Now, I did not want to lose my place and the tables because there were waiting lists and I had just paid the blinds. So, the only way I could retain my seats and restart the software (the only solution I know to this irritating problem) was to kill Party Poker in Window's task manager in order to relaunch it and be taken back to my tables.
