Why do I sometimes experience a slow or interrupted connection?
This could be due to many things: a server malfunction; modem failure; ISP failure; problem with your PC.
What do I do if the game freezes or I lose my connection?
If you lose your connection, the game will wait a period of time for you to reconnect. If you fail to re-connect, your hand will be deemed All-In. This means your last bet will be deemed to be taken as a bet made with your last chips, then the hand will be completed. If you win, you will be credited with whatever monies are in the main pot. A side pot will be played
for by the other players. If you are not able to re-establish your connection in a timely manner, your chips will be automatically deposited to your account for you.
In the unlikely event of the game freezing as a result of a server error, the hand will continue from where it left off after the server has been restarted. If you do not rejoin the hand, any money you may have bet will be refunded.

at the top right-corner of the table window to see the current rake. The rake is rounded down to the next whole cent where appropriate.
