WTF Ladbrokes! Rigged or coincidence?

DeLaBass

Just played a 5 handed STT on Ladbrookes. Two hands in and i'm dealt KK. My connection is "excellent" but when we get post flop I can't bet or anything and the program automatically checks it down in a matter of seconds and folds to the 20 bet on the river.
I'm fuppin fuming over this. There was absolutely nothing wrong with my computer or connection, it's never ever happened before and I never should have been designated "away from the table".

Am I just paranoid or do I have a right to be suspicious?

im guessing you accidently hit "away from table" or similar and hence it check/folded it the whole way.

Unlucky Karl, but please stay on topic and only post beneficial replies.

No seriously though, I hate all of those "is online poker rigged" threads and I didn't think i'd be starting one myself. All i'm saying is my connection didn't drop during once, it never does, but something did happen that stopped me from being able to bet and hence made me lose the hand. I'm still bamboozled over the whole thing...

Err... who would purposely disconnect you and why?

Ladbrokes STTs went down for about 10 mins this afternoon.
I was in the middle of a heads up STT and we both got disconnected.
They popped up a few system messages saying they were having tech probs, so I left the client open and the game popped up when they got it sorted.

So you can take the hat off now!!

If there was connection problems on the network then you should email support and ask for a refund, give the hand history number and stress that there was no internet problems at your end.

Did you have disconnect protection? It is possible to get disconnected from a site while your internet connection remains fine.
