i'd also like to say that i've disconnected in some pretty sketchy spots myself in the past, even had people email support complaining about it. if it's a one time or even a two time thing, i don't think its conclusive proof. that being said, if the guy has done this tons of times, it's time to do something about it.


[/ QUOTE ]

The exact same thing happened to me recently and the support has emailed me a warning regarding DP abuse. I got upset: 1) the player was a semi-regular(I'm a regular on the site for over an year). 2) the site has a proven history of crashing.

The next time it happened to me, I asked the player(not the one who complained originally) if he felt I did it intentionally, I will return his monies. As you said, one should consider giving the player benefit of doubt at least a couple of times. But, if he has a proven history of doing this, there is NO excuse at all.

i xposted at cardrunners. im not gonna wage a huge campaign and im pretty much done with the situation. enough ppl read this forum and the cr forum that his reputations should take a bit of a hit from this. that was my only goal.

well, i guess i wanna note that, imo, its a bit worse when you consider that im a fairly large loser in those games, lent53 is no doubt a better player, yet he still resorts to cheating to milk that last little bit. i suppose, in the end, thats what pissed me off the most.

hey guys,
I am really suprised that something like this is even being posted up.
I mean before taking judgements, are you guys even looking at the hand?
I would never even CONSIDER calling a bet like that on the river.
It bothers me because its not even like this was a tough situation or marginal spot, because its not.
I regularly use a wireless connection and stuff happens.
personally, I have had this done to me many times on UB as people are claiming and I hate it.
Especially at times like this, I wish UB did not even have this feature because now it makes me look awful.
And if other people have other hand histories as Taylor said then please post them up.
I personally dont want this to affect what the cardrunners members think of me, and i hope i can continue to contribute here.
Thanks

Len

The diconnection move is despicable, but one hand isn't enough to convince me. Where are the other HH's if he has a long history of doing this?

Ya that comment seemed very odd/suspicious. This looks like just about as good a spot as any to disconnect.

that isn't fair. there's plenty of guys i would auto fold to in this situation. furthermore, i would also argue that you could auto fold whenever anyone shoves 2x+PSB (without the nuts) on the river and still be a huge winner in that game, so long as others don't know this.

tc

edit: that being said, i think not considering calling bets of this nature is a leak, but seriously, everyone on this message board has leaks and we aren't all bad players.

this is a call vs me tbh. esp at 4am after i burn thru a couple buyins. ive bluffed off far more money, in far worse spots, many times. im pretty sure anyone thats played with me on ub can vouch that i can be a loose cannon.

while i may be deadmoney, i sure as hell aint scared money, and thats why this is so egregious.

So I guess you've never played with lent. I don't think he could ever have been accurately characterized as a nit.
