they shouldn't start it if they going to do that, not sure what a server restart is, but could they not pause the tourney and restart once they back online?

Ya really,....what a kick in the A$$...! Right when you're doing not too bad....BAM. Not by another player,...but by PokerStars shoddy planning itself...!
Just likee jje said,.....why start it in the first place...???
hahahaha thats getting me so tilt when it happens. Don't see that happen to frequently on pokerstar but it happened to me a lot on 888 or on espacejeux and that's so frustrating. Know it was just a freeroll but hey, you ran it for more than an hour, got a good position and THAT happen... so crappy

They could have made that announcement to cancel the tournament before it even started. Unless it was an unscheduled one. I guess they dont have the means to pause a game if a maintenance is in the middle. Just waste of time.
such a shame
