was doing ok too. was probably going to be on the money!!! i got in and it shows cancelled
 
It sucks that its so easy for hackers to do such DDos attacks. Imagine you are playing a high buyin tournament and almost get stacked off. You just DDos Pokerstars and here you are, your buyin refunded. Or lets say you are running hot and be in first positions but you know that you wont make it to the final table, DDos attack. Pokerstars refund you and also give you prize money based on icm.
 
It is very strange that pokerstars has not solved the problem soon, usually this type of problems solves it in hours

Pretty sure we aint getting anything, cause its a freeroll.

Got an email saying from what I understand that because we where not already in the money positions we will get nothing.

It were 38 players. The itm positions I think are 37? If only one player was busted we would get paid🙁😛uke:

Or we wouldnt get any money anyway?

The same happened to me in the big 1.10. What happens in this case? I was doing pretty well before the break!

Was trying to play the CC freeroll on Stars today...
Got disconnected and couldnt re-launch Stars... 🙂

Now it reopened again but connection is lost every few seconds again...
Not possible to play as the connection will not last for even one hand... 🙁

this is not uncommon, how much money is flushed because of such problems with the connection, remember to network CakePoker checked in the two turbines with the download of the bucks at 15, and lost the connection, as a result, even upon request in a support the money is not returned, but on ps there are instances when they sent the log files and they repair the damage, naturally, no one will return the money in the freeroll.
 
PS is down in US as well and has been here all morning. now 11:27 still down.
 
Guess it wasn’t just my end then. Thanks for responses. Starting to get pretty annoying. At least my MTT was a school pass ticket but still. An hour wasted for nothing.

Interestingly a couple of minutes before the break I noticed a conversation between two Russian players in I’m guessing Russian. Hmmm. Rumour is the attacks are occurring from Russia. Coincidence?

Pokerstars and other sites need to get this quickly under control or they won’t have players left.
