Default Re: WSEX update on disconnect issues and freerolls

...props for taking a suggestion from these forums (that the freerolls are partly to blame) and using it.
Too bad people are still having problems though but I'm glad that WPEX is trying to do something about it AND is keeping us updated on here.

So here is my trip report on multitabling 5 top SNG, $5 NL .

Monday, I played 4 at a time constantly for 100 minutes of play. I went through 8 tourneys in that time (that includes start up (15 minutes) and tailing off (15 minutes)). I took first once and second three times, breaking even. One lag lapse of about 10 seconds, causing at least one hand to fold. This was pretty crazy, but I could still chat. No misfolds or anything, but I was going all-in often as many were 3-up at the same time. Table turn over was not a problem.

Sunday, I played five, three at a time, won $32.50 ($7.50 up). Two lag lapses of about 10 seconds each over 100 minutes. Three at a time is easy really, lots of time to chat, take notes, ect.

Saturday, I played just two games at once. Won $17.50 (Up $7.50). Too slow.

So my net so far of 15, $5, 5-tops SNG is $15 up, with an average of 3 at a time, which would take about 4 hours of play (3 constantly), or 20% ROI . If you exclude the 4 tabling , then it's 7 hands over about 2 hours, $15 up or 42% ROI . At poker stars , over 15 @ $6 + $0.50 turbo, 4 at a time, I made about $42.50 (I played more then) in about 4 hours or 44% ROI .

Anyone have some pokerstars to Wsex ROI's of the same limits...with a bigger sample than I?

I never used PaHud and rarely use PT. I have considered SNG helper, but don't really care. I play for recreation/challenge. I plan to take detailed notes on players at Wsex (such as chat topics, and what they might think of my play). I'm taking a 'house game' approach to the SNG, as I'm confident I will see similar players over a long period of time and may actually get a better 'read' through the chat/subject topics. I think it will be more interesting too, as I can develope a better relationship with the players (B&M players talk about this).

Thought I would post this. The decons are WAY down for sure. They happen occasionally. They happened more often to others at the tables I was playing, and I'm sure it's their connection. You MUST turn animations off (and everything else for that matter, just the basics). I do this on all sites though.
