    Well guys my power goes out 5 seconds before the cards go into the air. Kind of sums up this tourney for USA. Just came back on now.
    Someone hit an electricity poll and the blackout hit. Just wanted to Congratulate team Canada and SBR for hosting this tourney. Canada played great in closing it out. You guys deserved it. It was fun BSing with all of you. Nothing personal at all! I can't wait for another one of these. It has been a great 4 months of grinding. SBR thanks again!!

    For future reference, playing on a laptop with a charged battery would have solved your issue.

    What if modem/router run on power? Does subsidized internet provide mobile Hotspot as well?

    My internet provides mobile hotspot. But for those less fortunate, you can simply bring your laptop to any Dunkin Donuts & play.

    I lost connection in game 1 and I came back with my smartphone 4g connection. I missed some blinds in the process, but i wasn't prepared for it. A tip for the future.

    Thanks Man! I would have a full blown panic attack if it was for the tourney. It literally happened 5 seconds before cards were dealt. I have the latest iphone. Are you saying that would work?

    I am on a laptop with a charged battery. I didn't have any power therefore no internet to play. It was a 10 mile blackout. Am I missing something?

    Of course it does. In your case it appears to pay to be "less fortunate"

    Bobby you are one funny dude with the "less fortunate". Always looking to get shit riled up. Yeah I know I could do that but it was a 10-15 mile radius so not sure what that would have done. Obviously with huge implications on the line I would be getting in my car and finding out. I'm looking into a generator to see if it would power my internet. With the storms we've been having in Houston I should have one anyways. I think the generator powering internet depends on the outage radius but I'm not sure.

    Your future options:

    1) Buy an air card - http://www.bonanza.com/listings/SPRI...zPAaAhzY8P8HAQ

    2) Buy generator & surge protector.

    3) Drive 11 miles to Dunkin Donuts.

    LOL, what kind of old laptop still has a PC Card slot??

    Pboozer, if you want internet for your laptop, either use your cell as a wifi hotspot or buy a USB wireless stick (same basic function as the air card) but you also need to have a cellular data plan with your provider. there are other basic options but those two are generally the cheapest and easiest to use.

    Yeah lol...I wasn't going to re-comment to bobbywaves because I kind of knew what he was talking about. USB wireless stick is the way I'm going. Hey BeerDog great match man. You were a great leader for your team. They all looked up to you and you guys stayed positive throughout. It seemed to be a true team effort regardless of individual points scored. That's what its all about! Good job man!!

    I guess where you are located your power didn't go out. I was going to try to facebook you but it was a total crap shoot. Seriously right when cards were being dealt....bang gone for 1 1/2 came back on at 1130 our time. A semi truck hit an electric poll causing a pretty big blackout. I guess is wasn't meant for TEAM USA after all lol. I'll send you the address to the new legion. It is right next to door to BIG TEX you pull in and its on the left side of it. A guard will be at front...you know the routine. Where the lowes is and home depot across the street.
