know what ur saying chris. im only on sky poker to qualify too, and would happily buy in direct. was really hopin to play this event. its not the first time i been disconnected during these sats either. dunno if i can be bothered tryin again and possibly throwin away more buyins!
I know what you mean about the disconnection problem (I'd just joined Skypoker on Monday and was concerned about reliability with there being no application to download) I played one of these last night and we were down to about 12 players (I was pretty short stacked as usual) and the game froze
The web page for the lobby also froze so I did the usual Ctrl/Alt/Del and ended the application, started explorer again and logged in ok only to be met with a frozen page and no access to the lobby or game.
Tried this 3 times before noticing that when I ended the application explorer was still showing as running in the processes list in Task Manager, but not in the applications. Once I ended that one as well I managed to get back into the web site and game ok
Very frustrating but after getting back into the game I was lucky to manage a quick double up to get me back to short stacked!!
Did manage to qualify and hope you have another crack at it Billy as it would be great to see you there.
Best of luck M8
