Same thing happend to me Idi0 within the last couple of weeks.

I was in a game and on the big blind and there was one caller in late position. Now I should of been first to act as I was the only player to the left of the button, late caller was on the right of the button (of course), but he checked  first and I was so shocked that I did too!

On the turn again he acted first and checked so I threw a bet in (I had nothing but after all he checked) and I took the pot down.

Right after the hand I asked the table and the guy if they thought that was wierd about the hand but I dont think they noticed this foul up as no one said a word!

Now i cant remember the game but I know the hand wasnt a critical hand and It was me who actually gained the advantage but similar cock ups could prove costly to other people.

Now I come to think of it I think the Button was on an empty seat in this case aswell!!

SAME HERE - has happened me quite a few times.

But at the same time I have missed BB before in the later stages of some of the challenges, and believe me it was a welcome "technical error"!

The BB error is old hat.

This OOPiP (Out of Position in Position - I love making up these acronym's) is a new one on me.

Why did you guys not post about the error here ? (or did you and I just didn't see / read it ?)

Anyway it totaly messed the hand in question up for me as I did not know wtf was going on. Also messed up the next 20 - 30 mins of both games I was in at the time as I wanted to post it on the forum.

Pretty HUGE error 888.

My style is like the reaction from too much acid .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. boom boom, bang bang, lie down you're dead

OOPIP, Good one Idio but like you said another very bad glitch in the 888 software. Don't think your going to get much of an answer though as it seems PP is trying to go bankrupt for some reason?

Come on 888!!! Hire some god darn (hope I can say that here) software developers that can get this site up to par.

How about some dissconnect protection in cash games? How about getting the BB error fixed finally? And now Out of position, in position?

What kind of developers do you have working on this site anyway?

I don't know about anyone else but this is getting very very frustrating and if something is not done soon to get your software fixed, well (fill in the blank)?

Also don't want to hear from you guys saying that it's in the works but it takes time. How long have we been waiting? Years!!!!

Get a grip.

Had to come back one more time. You guys are talking about adding blinds, antes and hand for hand play to our tournaments. Ok thats great.

However, whats the point of all of these upgrades if your deep in a tournament and than dissconnected for 10, 20, 30 mins only to finally get back in to see your almost blinded out!!!

Here is a radical idea!!! How about fixing the things that have to be fixed and coming out with a stable poker platform before worrying about the upgrades!!!

Grrrrrrrrr. Sry guys. Steaming a bit at the moment.

Hey Idi0 I was posting about the OOPiP hand (I like anagrams too!)

I said it had happened me and then I mentioned missing the BB.

The OOPiP problem is particularly annoying when you raise in "position" only to find yourself out of position!!!

Obviously this positional change completely changes the complexity of the hand and can often give the other person the advantage, which is totally unfair!

As newf said 888 really need to iron out all these "small technical faults" before launching into into antes, hand for hand etc.

Maybe Yuv or Ron could look at this?
