    No, you should not name him, well not on the forum anyway. Unfortunately due to site problems last night he was not the onlyone stealing blinds. Best thing you can do is contact customer services and ask for a refund. If the player was abusive to you however you can also report this matter to customer services.

    My games were also affected last night and I have been offered a refund. (Not received it as yet) but i'm sure it will get sorted.

    He'd be crazy to sit out. It's so easy to say you would 'play fair' in this situation, but would u?? haha

    I don't mind admitting id be stealing left right and centre here, ESPECIALLY with it being a bounty hunter, I cud make a good few quid n build a stack pretty quickly before players come bak.

    Made a huge mistake in the tko tho, was sat on my own for ages, was the only 1 playing, I was just going all in and sweeping up the blinds! Then all of a sudden someone sat bak in n found AA n snap called my 34 off!! Haha I couldnt believe it! - So if ur gonna take advantage and raise empty seats, make it a min raise ;)

    DOHH

    same happened to me the other day, 4 peps away, the other person and myself shared the blinds but played against each other on ours, took advantage to help our stacks early on.  :)

    You should not name him (as trying to Name & Shame is more than frowned upon in this forum) and he has broken no rule by being able to play when others could not.

    His stealing the blinds of players sat out should not affect any of them as they are entitled to a refund from Sky if the software was to blame.

    In this tournament he has no other choice. If he sits out and lets the blinds rise, while other people on other tables are stack building and bounty taking then he is ruining his own game for no other reason than to satisfy your morality on it.

    The other tables would not have been sitting out so he now has no chance to win even though he is experiancing no problems. He did the right thing imo as he would not have been entitled to a refund as he has no problems. Do you really think he should cost himself the buy in because others couldn't play??????

    To be honest all the games should have been cancelled and refunds given to everyone.

    I would do exactly the same, and would expect the same done to me

    Agree completly. Theres no way i'm sitting out when there is money being raked in on every other table. Also if it was the other way around then i would console myself with the fact that i'm getting my buy in back and wish i was one of those collecting all those easy bounties lol

    This happened to me a few weeks back, for the first 30 seconds it was annoying seeing this guy taking all the chips and I couldn't seem to do anything but watch. After realising that most others had the same problem as I did, I got chatting to the guy and wished him luck, I knew I would get my money back from Sky therefore there is no need to stress in this situation, if anything I was highly jealous of this guy and wished it was me in that situation and not him lol!!

    I was on a full house, cash table, when mine crashed... check raised the flop then couldn't do anything about it.

    No hard feelings though, I still love you sky, I just wish I could trust you more.
