    worst night ever ... over a dozen disconnects while at first table, cost me at least 1500 pts/chips

    was so painful to put up with I gave up and committed chip suicide just to end my suffering

    Ya, same with me, the disconnects started again yesterday for me... it really sucks when it happens.

    I have tried all of the suggestions I have seen so far, (e.g. WinXP SP3 mode, run as administrator, turned off Auto-Muck).

    Hope this gets resolved before Saturday. I really dont want to have to worry about disconnects during the tourney.

    Cheers.

    If you have a decent computer and internet connection, you won't.

    emoney - Ive got an 8gb i5 machine running nothing in background, ethernet cabled direct to the router with an 8mb connection and had issues all but one or two nights running vista, win7 or ubuntu.

    turning automuck off did help a bit but the last night I gave up in frustration and allin'd with nothing to end the suffering ...

    How hard can it be to add a heartbeat thread to the poker client to make sure the connection is maintained?

    Trying to play in the tournament with wireless connection on my laptop and had to give up. About 5 disconnects in the first 15 minutes.

    Most important thing you must do about disconnects is that you must bring in all in disconnect protection.
    It is stupid some guy go all in with small stack and you just call him,in that moment you get disconnected and he win pot no matter what is outcome.
    This is total BS.This aint fair.

    I know it's free, but why put the time in when you know that at any moment you might be disconnected?

    Convenient disconnects too...
    In a big pot with decent cards only to be disconnected and lose out to a guy with a high card hand

    Today my internet connection with Fulltilt hosed me from being in the money. It would not reconnect for almost half an hour. Top 540 got paid in the $5000 FTPA freeroll, I placed 551st. The rest of the internet was available including Cake poker.

    Hi

    Are these disconnects still a regular occurrence? I played today for the first time and I had at least 10. In the end just had to play fold or all in.

    One of the main reason I stopped playing online poker was the disconnect glitch that would happen every so often. I would notice it more on larger pot sizes and with potential winning hands very frustrating.

    I never have problems with disconnects. First time i have played poker on here in about a week. Make it to the final 12ish and disconnected. By the time I reconnect it is down to 2. I finished in 4th so it wasnt too bad, but I wanted to play it out!
