Also, blinds continue to go up even if you're not playing an opponent.

Edit: I ended up winning, $57, but that's the last time I'll play one of those I reckon. Worst structure ever.

Spoke to Gaz about this and he told me that there heads up tourneys don't play out as they should, which sucks.

888 acquired Pacific Poker not that long ago and there is only so much they can do with the software at a time. He has prioritised aspects of the software to be upgraded and fixed as new updates are released.

Unfortunately the HU tourneys isn't high on the priority list.

That's actually a little bit encouraging.

At least we know 888 didn't design the p.o.s and have merely acquired it from someone else and they know it's rubbish :)
Pardon me, but I think you'll find that's a shovel. See you next Tuesday!

ok im not kidding.

dead small blind and the BB is also in for less than a BB.

there are two limpers and i also decide to limp from the cutoff with TJ suited.

after the flop. I AM MADE TO BE FIRST TO ACT!!!! WTF x 1000!!!!!


i arksed the other players on the table to ensure that i wasn't suffereing from a bad connection etc, but they confirmed the error.

Lucky it was a freeroll or i would have been mighty pissed off.

That's so goddamn stupid.

Another thing I can't stand is when there's an all in for 120 at 100/200. When the action folds to me, I have the option to call 120, and a min raise is 240. If I try to raise anymore, it will be done in 120 increments. Yet if I flat, 200 will be thrown out.

That really annoys me.

Happened again just then (CO first to act).

Happens when there is a dead small blind. I think the stupid software says that the person to the right of the BB acts first post flop.

Why would you invest you money here...

i just bet the exact amount for a guy to go all in like 2762
then he called

then the turn was dealt, and i could check or bet again, even tough he had 0 dollars behind
i checked, then it was like he was all in and river was dealt

But how much did you lose?

What does everyone think of a late rego period for 888 tournaments?
