I've HAD IT with Ongame. They crash every other night. I'm deep in this stupid $5.50 rebuy, and it crashes. I hope they pay out relative to stack size...

Pokerroom crashed again for me.

Lately is seems to be happening quite a bit.

Yes it just went down for me too.

It's back up for me, and I log back in and the tournament is still going! It's down to 8, and I bust 8th for only $70. I had $140k when the crash happened, with 1000/2000 blinds. I log back in and it's 5k/10k and I only have 40k. WTF?

I remember a time when I was playing the $2 rebuy frenzy tourney when the server went down

they shut the tourney down and restarted it 2 1/2 hours later

I was the only one out of 16 people left that waited around, I stole blinds as fast as I could, and won first place for about $1500 [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

So wait, they let you keep the first price money? They didn't distribute the money by stack size at the time of the crash?

no the rules stated that, if a tournament is restarted due to server issues, people are obligated to be there for the restart, and the tournament will be run as normal
