yoder Posted July 12, 2009 Report Share Posted July 12, 2009 Lately I've noticed that when the table host crashes, the new host is no longer the next-longest person at the table. This creates a terrible situation when regular partners are playing and the host crashes! The new host used to be the other partner, but now it often becomes one of the opponents. This means the remaining partner loses control of the table and the new host may allow someone else to sit instead of waiting for the crashed person to return. This usually causes the remaining partner to leave, abandoning the hand, and the partnership has to start a new table. I can't imagine why this change was made, but PLEASE change it back!

yoder Posted July 13, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 13, 2009 In fact, now that I think about it ..... When the host crashes, his/her partner should always become the new host! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
