[PartyPoker] Ex-Official thread - Page 44 - Online Poker Sites -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

Thanks.

Number of tickets accumulated to date: 876
Prize(s) won to date:
Cash: 0
Points: 0
Big draw tickets: 0

More irritating is that no points have updated for me today and apparently I am ineligable for todays draw, despite earning (what should be) approximately 200 points. Hey ho

Listen, PartyPoker, what are you so worried about? You know Mom's gonna pack your stuff anyway. You're what the French call "les incompetents".

Party,

Get rid of your 99r daily..its getting smaller and smaller. Replace it with the $150FO you used to run and slap the same 30k gtd down and it'll easily get that. Right now the tournament plays way too deep early and it's seeing less and less people register it. Please fix your tournament schedule!

If you have more tournaments, you will get more volume and than you can run the monthly million once a month again!

Does anyone know how pp has handled situations like this in the past for tournaments? Cancel and refund? My client just closed and I don't want to sit here trying to fire it up every 30 seconds.

No idea. I think maybe I might have caused it, though. I'm not really that good at tournaments and I was on my way to a final table. Seems the system couldn't cope with me doing well and decided to go kablooey rather than deal with that.

Edit: Looks like it's back up, though still can't sit at table.

From their website

Quote:

Multi-table tournaments

Players who have been eliminated from a tournament before cancellation for technical reasons will lose their buy-in and entry fee.

Any players still competing in a tournament when it is cancelled for technical reason will be refunded as follows:

1. Each player will be awarded prize money equal to the amount that would have been awarded to the next player to be eliminated.

2. After prize money has been allocated according to point 1, 50% of the remaining prize pool will be distributed equally between the remaining players, and 50% will be distributed on a percentage basis according to the remaining players' chip count at the time of cancellation.

3. The remaining players will also be refunded their entry fee.

Yesterday I was playing the $215 and $530 highroller along with about 15 other games across 5 sites. The $215 played fine all day before and after the $530, but the $530 never popped up, I didn't notice until I had around 20BB left. I called support and told them about the issue before playing any hands since I didn't want to ruin my chances of some sort of compensation. They basically told me "sorry, it's not our fault, you shouldn't be playing so many tables". I mean, it's clearly a software glitch, and telling customers that are playing their highest stakes tournament of the week that it's their fault they're playing professionally and I should be 1-tabling is kind of ludicrous. This view is probably fine for stakes that are populated by basically no professionals/people mass-tabling, but can this seriously be said for the highest stakes tournament you offer? Over the past 3 years I've received between 3 and 4k of refunds from Pokerstars and FTP for these exact same issues because it's clearly a glitch in the software.

Very unhappy with the response from support about this, please fix your software, and please realize that telling someone they should play less games and notice when the software doesn't do what it should is a good way to alienate the small amount of highstakes tournament players you already have. If I'm cutting back tables it's probably going to by Party Poker tables that get cut first.

As someone who beta tested partypoker and has made input to the software, I think you are just never going to get that bug fixed. It was a bug 10 years ago, and it's a bug now.

If you ask nicely they will probably give you the rake back for the tournament as compensation, but you have to know that is how party software behaves unfortunately. In the past it would move tables and the new table would never popup. The lobby button always meant the main lobby, and you had to find the actual tournament through the worst interface ever to open your table again.

Party used to have a rule against professional play in their TOS as well, so I doubt they care much about your argument.
