Dealer: Game #18202223656: weejazz wins pot (1725)


it's fun playing about 1 hand every few minutes...

Note, this is not bubble stalling, this has been how it has been the entire tournament, which is now approaching 2 hours old. I have played a total of 64 hands.

  • Well, got knocked out calling a guy who was clearly shoving because he was going nuts at the table as well. Was a relatively quick hand, only 2 people timed out. Naturally the table broke after I was gone

  • man that sucks hard. To have it end like that :S
  • So that's how you play 36 tables at once.
  • I feel you... I HATE stars for that...

    Guy has 60 seconds... warning at 15............ awww he's disconnected... gotta wait some more, eh.... ok 30 seconds.... oh he's back... call. DAMN
    next hand... 15 seconds... SHIT DISCONNECTED AGAIN fuck gotta wait another minutes... oh he's back, call FUCKING DOUCHEBAG GET A DECENT FUCKING CONNECTION.


    hmm... think I woke up on the wrong side of the bed this morning lol
  • I did a player search on the ones who did it every hand (Borgot and Orsk).

    The $3 rebuy was the only table they were at.


    I did email stars about it and they were prompt in their reply which was in theory nice. However they suggested the following:

    You may want to look for our games listed with the word
    "(fast)" in the name. In these games a player has far less time
    to act and the games are generally much speedier. Multi-tablers tend
    to avoid them, and thus you may find these more to your liking.
    These "Fast" games are available at most limits and in most games.

    umm, thanks for the generic reply after seeing the word "stalling" and not reading the context of the situation (a weakness Stars customer support has often).
  • Stars has customer support??? That's news to me.
