    Within the first 4 or 5 hands on FTP's 100r just now, I lost an all-in, leaving me with 145 chips----moved it in the next hand---and disconnected.....keep in mind I had the dble-auto rebuy box checked----as I reconnected, I came back to an empty seat, and me out of the tournament----really???? Thats fkkked up.

    I told PJ who was ironically at my 100r table on stars.....he said he would inform tech support, etc.....I could care less about the 200 bucks----that's not really the point of the post....that is a glitch that needs to be fixed.

    I'm pretty sure the same thing would happen on stars except that you get a bit more time. At least with the late one it does. Sucks though, I've timed out on the rebuy a couple times before

    It's not a glitch. Clicking the auto rebuy button doesn't give any information directly to the system, it just makes the process automated, so when the system checks with your computer to see if you want to do anything, your computer will tell it that you want to rebuy instead of having it prompt you. It's like any other "auto" button that you can click, like auto folding and the check/call button. If your computer is disconnected from the server, it obviously can't tell the system what you want to do when it prompts you.

    Cliffnotes: It's not the site's fault, it's your internet's fault.

    I once were going to the bathroom or whatever and sat out at every table, then I noticed I had a hand worth going allin in the 100r. After going allin I pressed sitout again before watching the outcome of the hand, only to discover that if I am sitting out it won`t rebuy and I busted the tourney :(
