22-10-06 Poker.com Game Cancellation

[Tish_Man]

Anyone have any clue as to what happend with Poker.com tonight?
Will the game still count towards the overall point standings?

This was the first time I've managed to get in on one of the tournaments.
I was enjoying it - and doing well, which was even more of a surprise.........

Will we find out what happened?

hi all

I don't at the moment know what happened with last nights game - I've emailed the people I deal with at poker.com so should get an answer asap

I've not seen it happen before - afaiks I went off to make another coffee as it must have been gone 2.30am for me and the tournie just went offline and totted out the $50 prize fund evenly between the remaining 60-70 ish players

I've got not idea why - as the rest of the site seemed to be up an working

But yes we will find out what the problem was - in terms of it counting towards the league, it won't as only top 10 get points and that could have neded up being anybody but it will get rescheduled - I'm guessing we'll tag it on the end of the other Poker.com tournies that are scheduled

Apologise to all and will let you know what happened as soon as I do

cheers scrawnybob

Good morning....yes a shame that the game ended so swiftly. Just as a part of information I was also playing in the New Depositer's game and that didn't even let le get to the table. It also finished is the same way, so for a change I got a bit of cash from both tourneys.

I think only half of the tables were able to play at the $King event as most of them still had the 1500 chips they had started with.

All in all though I think poker.com do a great job and we should still support them as much as pos.

Let's get lucky

hi all

think the members who played in the poker.com tournie we organised last night may have a pleasant little suprise in their account

poker.com are total stars IMHO

From what I have gathered one of the servers went down which affected several games not just our tournie

Had an email from poker.com support outlining the very unusual problem - I like others have found the poker.com platform to have been brilliant so far

And fair play to poker.com customer service I think they may have looked after the affected players - stunning and an example to alot of other "bigger better" sites who I know in the past have had several periods of downtime and you don't get you buy-ins back

let alone a sweetener - poker.com 5 stars plus

cheers scrawnybob

ps we will be rescheduling the missed tournie and tagging it on the end of the others which will run as planned

wow, that was a a very pleasant surprise indeed.
That's very impressive from Poker.com - way beyond anything that I would have expected them to do.

I enjoyed my short spell playing with you guys - and Bob, it was nice to get a few chips from you
