You initiate a lawsuit in Canada, if you lose, you pay THEIR attorney fees as well (unlike in the U.S.).

Also, your ISP contract probably had a clause against liabilities from disruption of service.

why ask us? Check the terms and conditions you agreed to when you signed up with the ISP. Typically there will be a clause stating that the ISP will refund without quibble any equity you lose due to being disconnected in a hand of online poker. Just bring that to the attention of their customer service manager, and you won't need to sue. In fact the cheque is probably already in the mail.

Why are you asking people on here? You know they are just gonna laugh at you and make fun of you.

The correct thing to do since you are located in Canada is to take legal action against your ISP. First though you need to have some sort of documention of the robbery/loss that happen. I would suggest contacting your local authorities and have them come to your house, take photos of the scene of the crime, and possibly dust for prints for evidence. Once they have done this and you have the correct police reports filed next seek out an attorney who specializes in ISP robberies and disconnection protection or lack of. Once you get to this point it is smooth sailing. Pay any retainer that is necessary and sue your ISP. At worst cause you should at least recover like tree fiddy or more!

I had an account on here in the past, don't think because i made a new one that i didn't expect anyone to make fun of me, i know how the internet works guys, i just wanted someone else point of view like i said, and by the way no i can't say for sure that i would have won the hand, but id rather lose 12 grand because someone outdraw me than losing the money due to a stupid ISP mistake.

Anyway thanks for the quick replies.
