I have noticed a disturbing software glitch lately that I hope can be fixed. In both Satellites and MTTs, you will find at the same table, that the exact same blinds may (at any time) play twice in a row (possibly even on multiple occasions in same game). I have had two big blinds on consecutive hands, and two small blinds on consecutive hands.

In a recent Satellite, this happened two different times where I had small blind twice in just a short time. I am not talking about when you get changed tables, I mean at the same table.

After I just saw it happen again in tonights 6r 2.5K, I decided better make a post.

+1 Please make this change. It just happened to me on 3 different occasions (rebuy satallite). I had to post the big blind 2x in a row twice, and the SB 2x in a row once. It was a super turbo, 500 starting chips, average stack on the table was 3k-3.5k and blinds were 125/250. Kinda diminishes my chances when this happens.

Just happened again. Are there any reps that visit 2+2 from ACR?

A rep was here 2 days ago. Maybe they are off on the weekends?

Yes, they come on quite frequently to answer all the questions. The new ownership is giving it their best effort considering what they started with coming off of DoylesRoom. I have switched almost 100% of my online play to ACR. I am recommending them to friends and giving them a chance while they are working hard to correct all the things going on that people are looking for.

Yeah me too...Overall this site is great, aside from a few software glitches and format issues.

Thanks WEC. Just to echo both of you, first day playing the site and I had a great experience. Looking forward to playing here a lot more in the future, hope to see you at the tables!

Another error here is a new player comes in and they put him on the button. Maybe that is the common software error when someone comes in new at that position and it forces a double blind. Will need to see further hands.

All of these HHs and above from same tournament. Differing reasons it seems for double blinds, but serious problem that should be addressed 1st thing obviously. If it does this to you in later stages of blinds, it could be the reason you lose the tournament/get knocked out.

These just a short time apart.

Here above, just a strange occurrence because same player who came to the table last time on the button as new player blinds were doubled (SHAKEDOG601) now comes in as new player on Small Blind which caused me to take a double Big Blind.

Seems an error occurs when software is dealing with new players coming into small blind and button, but more hands need to be looked at obvioulsy

How is the sng traffic on America's Cardroom? Now does the bonuses still not expire? Just curious cause want to make a deposit in a month or so.

Hey Jeff,

When I used to play on pstars and ftp I loved to 8-12 table sit n gos. Unfortunately, there is almost no traffic in the sit-n-go department on this site. I'm hoping that it will pick up eventually but right now there just isn't much going on (at least not yesterday as it was my first day there).

Its like that all time maybe it will pick up.

What's average wait time now for a check?

A few newbie questions:

Under deposit options on the web site, it gives these two similar options:
Are both available from the U.S.? What is the difference?

Are Visa deposits processed as purchases or cash advances?

Is there a time limit to release the deposit bonus?

Do you lose unreleased bonus money if you withdraw profits before the bonus is fully released?

Do you lose unreleased bonus money if you withdraw some or all of one's deposit money before the bonus is fully released?

Are there any turnover requirements before deposit money can be withdrawn?

What is the monthly play threshold that makes the points reward system a better choice than the 27% rakeback?

Are there any restrictions on having both a TruePoker and an Americas Cardroom account (other than not playing them simultaneously, obv).

Can one earn a first deposit bonus on both TruePoker and Americas Cardroom?

Also, I'm having trouble running the program. I asked support, but maybe someone here knows a solution:

Juice I'm also amazed at the lack of, and non variety of sit and go's running. And they leave the lobby looking like a ghost town of empty tables. Heck I would settle for some hyper turbos. Anything.something.

I completely agree gren. Sit-n-gos are my bread and butter so it's sad not being able to play them here. It's forcing me to work on my MTT game though so that's a plus! I may join up on Lock too just for the sit n gos and play the MTTs here at ACR.

FMP. It's Windows Defender I run, not Bitdefender. I also use Windows Firewall, but see nothing there that would block ACR. I also tried creating rules in Windows Firewall to allow ACR, but that made no difference.

never mind I see it now

How do you tell what tournaments you're registered for after winning a satellite seat, I can't find it anywhere.

Has the BBJ ever been hit on ACR? Or if it has, when was the very last time?

+1 lets get some DOuble up action going. no need for 35 empty tables in the lobby lol

Didn't search thread bc laziness. Is there rakeback on here? Do they allow pokertracker? Thx

Not sure how technically adept they are, but you can contact support by:

Many Times

Several times just in last few weeks. Last reported online was April 9th, but I know I saw it was hit in last few days. When you play cash games and it hits, they have a news bubble that pops up under the current Jackpot on the table. Jackpot moves up very fast. Currently $152K, got knocked down to like $88K just couple days ago.

What is the best affiliate to sign up through?

Been trying to get the debit card for months now, have sent in everything, have the $ in my account for it... support ignores my emails, ACR rep ignores my PMs... what is the secret to getting this thing?

Apparently they don't want my rake, as I am not playing there until I get it.
