Yesterday I decided to play a sit and go tournament for $ 30 ... I registered and a table opened ... my opponent was a player from Uruguay .... and then a very sad event happened for me ... my computer started to restart unexpectedly ..... my attempts to influence this did not bring success ...... after the reboot, naturally I saw that the game was already over and I lost $ 30 .... very bad ...

Wow I wouldnt say its nothing, it never happened to me in my life and i imagine, its very frustrating My updates usually come up in the evening, when i shut down my computer, then i do "download updates and shut down" option. Maybe there is optino, where you can say, that updates are done in your nighttime, i dont know. I guess i just have being lucky so far.

it should be nothing... or he is playing out of his bankroll menagment... which he shouldnt...than he have bigger problems than pc not running properly...
the most unpleasant thing was that I knew that I had problems with my computer and was going to solve them the next day ... Just before going to bed, I decided to make one game and it so happened that this game eventually did not happen ... it’s very sad of course the events will have to put up with it ... nothing can be changed Unfortunately

surely we all see Pajalnick once, take that for granted, but it still does not happen prepare yourselves because surely one day they will touch you and you will see that it is uglier more when you earn so much money and then it goes like water and the most beautiful that you could not play it or go winning well and just an unforeseen event happens

It is not right what is happening and this problem may be for a reason which is not related to the Paraguayan player. It is ugly to lose this money in this way, and not having the opportunity to express your talent in Poker, but nasty things do not avoid us.

you were a little mistaken .... the player was not from Paraguay but from Uruguay ... But of course, what he won against me while I tried to restart the computer is of course normal action ... I would have done the same myself If my opponent was I would have no connection during the game .... but the situation is certainly quite sad .... I have had this several times, but when playing for $ 30 this is the first time

Paraguay or Uruguay does not matter much in this case. I suffered this twice or maybe more. I played once in full tilt a tournament where you could enter four times. Entry it was $ 8 and in total $32. I lost my connection and my money. The second time was with a ticket of 16.50 and one of 5.50. You can't do too much in this situation.

if in the tournament there is some opportunity to continue the game even after skipping for a while, then in such a short-lived game like sit-and-go this is impossible ... everything happens very quickly and there is practically no time to fix a technical error ... I also had similar problems ... But there I quickly solved them and continued the game
