Member’s Rule today

Post by rockinrobin »

While playing in the Member’s rule today, my cards disappear mid game. Some of the hands just go away and the game doesn’t continue. I go back into the session and get the same result.

I assume you are referring to the Ultimate X Members Rule contest (not the host competition?). Haven't had other reports of this happening. Might try rebooting your computer as a start to see if that fixes it.

Yes, that is the one I’m referring to. I started and the same thing happens.

The other games and tournaments I have played have no issues.

Congratulations to OMT on his 7x Royal, good for 7th place so far in the weekly Members Rule contest. I'd like to say that I was right on his heels, but my 275th- (and dropping fast) place score isn't competing.

As long as you did your best, New. That's what really matters. As far as I'm concerned, everybody will finish in first place.

Keep getting them, OMT. Pay no attention to what I just wrote above.

Yes, sometimes when you play these games just for fun, it really IS fun when you hit something like that. If my memory serves me right, I think, several years ago, I hit a 12x one, also on Ultimate X.

It'll never happen in a casino, though. When I'm playing with real money, I try to avoid the newer circus type games, and stick to traditional low variance video poker games.

Nice going OMT. Similar experiences playing for fun here and on Wolf VP or even the Wizard, but a different world once I walk through the casino door.

Haha. Even without your 2nd paragraph, your over 1000 Top Scores of the Day tell me that you know the difference between 1st place and every other finishing spot. Congrats to you ... and still to OMT, who is still hanging on in 8th.

Actually, 8th is no big deal. Did you notice, by the way, that the leader had a much bigger hit than mine - two 12x royals?
