Well just about every SNG I was playing the blinds went crazy and I obv busted in most of them.

Sent this to stars.........

Hi,

As you know there was an outage that caused the tournaments on Pokerstars to be paused.

I was playing quite a few SNGs at the time of this pause and when the games resumed the blinds were so abnormally high that they turned the games into a crapshoot. As an experienced Turbo SNG player I can tell you that missing 2 or 3 levels in these games totally ruins their integrity.

I feel that my games have been adversely affected and I would like a full refund for each of the ones listed bellow.
I've given stars $11,000 in tournament fees so far this year so I hope this will be ok.


Tournament #51962877

Before the pause it is blinds 75/150, after the pause is is 200/400 which lasts only 4 hands then goes to 300/600 blinds.

I made two birdies today.

<font color="white">I played Lincoln Park in SF where there's one par 4 over 325 and I hit driver-8 iron into the one par 5. I also made two X's trying to drive little par 4's and I'm pretty sure I hit a Prius. Total probably about 80 although I don't count anymore.</font>

I would be shocked if they don't refund you.. I usually just give tournament numbers when theres bad disconnects and tell them to ship the $$ and always get paid.

yeah I hope so, the last time something like this happened to me was when there was severe lagging and we missed almost a level on each table, I emailed support and they said this

Hello Dale,

Thank you for your email.

We are not aware of any type of server interuptions that occurred last
night. In reviewing your tournament and chat history, it does appear that
there was some sort of lag at around 18:50 ET, however it lasted less than
two minutes.

We have not received any unusual number of emails regarding this pause,
and it seems unlikely that your tournaments were affected in any way.
Because of this, we are not able to offer you any type of compensation.

Please let us know if we can assist you further.

Regards,

Dan C
