Disconnections really suck
Everywhere . Period
A poker room that doesn't take this seriously is not a serious poker room . It's a Jokers' room , showing disrespect to customers and to their money . You cannot trust them . They do everything nowadays to attract new customers (special
freerolls , ambassadors , etc ) . Yet they do nothing to improve players' gameplay experience . The year is 2023 , not 2004 .
I remember once at ACR a tourney , I think it was $11 or $16.5 tourney , had big stack , then (very deep in the tourney) on one crucial hand I had top hand set of KKs , big pot , the other player was keep on betting going for all his stack
Then I got disconnected ....... When I came back we were at another hand , I lost most of my chips
If it's in the nano stakes or very low micros , these disconnections don't hurt too much .
But if you play higher bui ins (higher for your
bankroll limits ) , then these disconnections hurt
Early on a tourney it's not so sad , but late , deep in a tourney , close to FT or at the FT , then it drives you crazy
Their pc lobby also has problems , many disconnections (especially with WiFi ) , very demanding in hardware RAM or whatever . At my laptop I was playing 888 or PS , many tables and no problem . With ACR ( and Bwin ) it's a nightmare !!!!!!!!
