A fault on the PartyPoker software

PartyPoker is currently studying a "glitch" (or fault) into their software. The fault is ensuring that in rare occasions, in the middle of a hand, your Exchange. Sometimes, it is the name of your opponents that changes.

If you receive AK for example and on the turn your hand becomes A7, you actually still AK, but it is something to worry about anyway. And if you are a big multi-tableurs, it is possible that you're quite confused rendering on the turn.


PartyPoker has therefore confirmed this news and is in serious analysis period. This fault happens only in parts to money.

This new first appeared on the forums of a German site where the poster "Guennilicous" showed a video as proof that changed the name of the players during the hand. Of other posters on published videos showing their own cards which change during the course of a hand.

It is a graphic error of the PartyPoker software. At one point, a false hand can be displayed and the showdown, handmade real re-appeared.

What's obvious to ensure that a player can bet while it should checker, checker then it should bet, short, play the hand in completely different ways, which will make it lose money. A player also testified on this subject he went all-in on a flop of seeing that he had top set (the highest three of a kind) and finally to the showdown, he was nothing at all.

It is not yet clear today if this flaw is common. PartyPoker of his side says that it has received only a few complaints in this regard. Faults come in a random manner and to this day, only players of the German public forum said victims of this flaw.

A similar rift had emerged last February. PartyPoker is not known if the same fault which resurfaced or if it is a completely different flaw.

A member of the support of Party Poker has posted on the same forum that the fault would be corrected in November and that it was due to the use of Hold'em Manager 2. This information is perhaps accurate step considering that some players have testified have been victim of this flaw, who did no statistical software.

A thread has been opened on the 2 + 2 forums for this purpose and a member of the PartyPoker support informed members that since 1 month, no one had this problem.

As of yesterday, the assertion has been corrected by saying that there were few occurrences of this problem and that everything would be done to correct the situation as soon as possible.

PartyPoker is currently studying the problem in a very serious way and not excluding any hypothesis, as the possible influence of third-party software on this problem.

People who have this problem are strongly encouraged to contact PartyPoker support.
