    Grrr... On PPP last night playing the $2500 guaranteed $27 rebuy. We get to final table... Four left blinds 8k 16k - I'm second with 100k plus. 3rd and 4th on 40k and 26k or thereabouts. CL on 177k we break and just as we're about to come back... Lose the connection. I end up third never able to get back in the game. Almost certainly lost $$$

    :mad: Bloomin UTV internet and ISDN sh**e - Please bring broadband to Knockrooskey

    A similar thing happened to me a few months back, I was tilting for about 2 weeks afterwards. 5 left and I have 60% of the chips. 1st is $2700, 5th $500. I got disconnected and came fifth. Sick. :mad:

    Same thing happened to me when I was playing a cash game on PPP last week - I had Ax suited, was in a sizeable pot and I hit the nut flush on the turn. A couple of bets in to me and....got disconnected.

    Cue a foul mouthed tirade and storming around the room looking for something to break. :D

    What do you use? Eircom broadband? Name and shame.

    Maybe we should start a poll on what people use and another on how satisfied they are with it.

    Good idea.

    I'm with Smart - good 98% of the time but occasional short losses of service. I think it may have more to do with the crappy router they provide.
