Re: Feb [censored] all things related to poker thread.
He got 9th, and I just got 6th in the 900 person 15 dollar tourney. It's going to be VERY close but I think I won it.
If I don't win I think I will either kill myself or at least take a week long break. |

Re: Feb [censored] all things related to poker thread.
Important Breaking News: Stars Support is still awesome.
I e-mailed them about experiencing lag (the internet connection problem, not the playing style) everytime I logged onto PokerStars. expecting a curt "sorry dude, gl" response back, this is what i got instead: ----------- Hello Matthew, Thank you for your Email. I will do my best to assist you, but first I must explain a little bit about how the Internet works. My apologies if this is information you're already familiar with. If you're already familiar with how the Internet works, please skip the next 3 paragraphs. The Internet is a peer to peer network. Information between your computer and our servers will pass through a large number (8 to 24 or more) of "peers", machines that aren't ours and that also don't belong to your ISP. Your connection is only as good as the WORST of these machines. If any single one of these is having trouble, or fails to properly forward your data, you will experience a disconnect. You will often be able to check Email or browse other sites, even if your connection to PokerStars experiences brief outages. This is because the path (the chain of machines) between you and each destination site you visit is different. The path to your Email server, for example, is very short since your Email server is usually right there at your ISP. The path to other sites you might use to test (like yahoo.com or CNN.com) will likely be very different as well, based on geography. You may have a stable path to Yahoo, but an unstable path to PokerStars simply because your path to PokerStars passes through an unreliable peer. Finally, the demands of online gaming on a connection are much higher than on browsing the web or checking Email. With web browsing you load a page, and then your connection is "idle" -- you don't stay connected to the web server. The same is true of Email. However, with real-time applications such as online poker, the connection is constant and must be very stable. The average disconnection from PokerStars is very short (only a few seconds), and by the time you notice you were disconnected, you're probably already reconnected, which is why many users report that the problem is only with PokerStars ("because they were able to browse a web site right then"). You may therefore be experiencing these same brief disconnects during web browsing and Email checking, and never know it. That said, the most common causes of brief disconnects are sometimes within your control, and sometimes are not. Common causes that are within your control include: Dialup modem "handshaking" (known as retraining) Unstable routers (DLink DI-624, LinkSys BEFSW-11B among others) Use of unstable wireless connections for play Bad cables (CAT-5 network cables are recommended) Computers running with insufficient memory Spyware or other programs on your computer interfering Common causes that may be outside of your control include: Permanently poor Internet route to PokerStars' servers Temporarily unstable route to PokerStars (usually self-correcting) ISP equipment failure Using some trial and error, we can likely narrow down the cause of the problems. If you have a Cable or DSL connection and also use a router, take it out of the loop. Run a known good quality Cat-5 Ethernet cable (available at Radio Shack, CompUSA, or any office supply store) directly from your DSL/Cable modem to your computer. If your connection stabilizes, the router is at fault. Sometimes a firmware upgrade can stabilize a bad router -- contact the router manufacturer for assistance with a firmware upgrade. If this fails, you may want to try a different brand of router. Wireless isn't recommended for real time gaming such as PokerStars. The average disconnect rate on a wireless connection is over twenty times higher than on a wired connection. If you have a wireless router, try playing through the wired connection through the router. If the connection stabilizes, wireless just isn't for you. If you have a dialup modem connection, re-handshaking (known as re- training) can be a problem if the modems are incompatible. You may want to either try a different brand of modem in your computer, or try a different dialup ISP (to get a different brand of modem on the other end). This may stabilize your connection. If not, you may want to consider an upgrade to cable or DSL, if available. If you'd like a more detailed description of retraining on dialup modem connections from one of our connection specialists, please let us know. Regarding spyware, we recommend you ensure your system is clean using two quality spyware tools: http://www.lavasoft.de (AdAware 1.06 SE Personal Edition) http://www.spybot.info (Search and Destroy) Both are free, and work well in conjunction with each other, finding things the other does not. Cleaning your system may free up more RAM and remove bad things from your system that affect your connection. Regarding memory load, PokerStars and Windows *can* run with as little as 64 MB of RAM, but it isn't at all recommended. We have also seen 128 MB of RAM be problematic, especially on Windows 98 machines. That's enough RAM to run Windows, but not much else. If you're going to run anti-virus software (and you should!), a firewall (and you should!), and any number of other programs, then 128 MB is not enough, and 256 MB is barely sufficient. For best performance we recommend 512 MB of RAM in your system. This should ensure that your connection is stable no matter how many other things you're running. Contact your local computer store for assistance with a RAM upgrade, or if you're a do-it-yourselfer, visit Crucial.com. If you've done all the above (cleaned spyware, ensured you have ample RAM, have eliminated a router as the source of the problem, etc), and the problem persists, the problem may simply be out of your (and our) control. Here are a few things you can do that might help narrow down where the problem is outside your computer: In the PokerStars software, click "Help -> Network Status", and then click on the 'Advanced' button for the details of each connection as well as highlighting one of the sites listed. Other than PokerStars, none of these servers are ours -- we use these other sites worldwide to see how your connection is in general. Lost packets to most or all of the sites are indicative of problems nearer your ISP or own computer (your connection is poor to everywhere). Lost packets to just one or two sites indicate problems closer to those sites. Highlighting a site and clicking 'Trace' will display the "hops" (each machine along the path) between you and that site and how fast the data is travelling at that time. 100 milliseconds or so is great, over 500 milliseconds is slow and over 1 second is very bad. Look for "lost packets" on the trace to PokerStars -- the closer the lost packets are to the top of the list, the closer the connection problem is to your own computer. If your connection to sites other than just PokerStars is bad, then it's likely there's a router problem somewhere close to your ISP. You can inquire with your Internet Service Provider about this connectivity problem, or you can try again in a little while. A problem like this is usually temporary and in most cases, corrects itself. If the connection is only poor for PokerStars, or has been a long-term connection problem here on PokerStars, then this may simply be revealing a connection stability problem that won't manifest itself on most other Internet applications. In this case, we recommend that you consider trying another ISP to see if the problem is related to that ISP or to the path that ISP uses to reach PokerStars. For all connections, if there are "lost packets" in a trace to PokerStars and they are mid-way between your computer (the top of the trace) and our server (the bottom) , then there's little anyone can do but wait. Most times when the lost packets are in the middle of the trace, the problem router (the middleman) will be corrected within an hour or two. Therefore, if this is only a temporary problem and your connection to PokerStars is usually good, we advise that you simply try again in an hour or two. That will give the ISP's involved a chance to notice, diagnose and correct the problem. If this is a long-term, recurring problem, please let us know more about your connection. Among the things we'd need to know are: Operating System (i.e. Windows 98, Windows XP w/ Service Pack 2) Computer processor (i.e. Pentium 4, 2.4 Ghz) System RAM (i.e. 256 MB) Connection type (dialup, cable, DSL, satellite) What ISP you use Router brand and model (if any) We'd also like to know the results of any of the recommended tests you performed above. Once we have this information we will have one of our connectivity specialists take a more in-depth look for you. Regards, Jackson PokerStars Support Team ----------- Jackson is the man. |
