One day june 28 I lost three major pots to the same person. I went back to the FTP downloads to rerun the hands and they were all missing from my downloaded hand histories. In fact surrounding these bad beats were chunks of hands missing. It looks very fishy. I have another source for the hands. Post comments to the nature of what you think is wrong with this. Some posts by people other than FTP employees would be apreciated. I just cant help but think that someone inside FTP or outside has hacked in.
It's spelled Occam's Razor, FYI.
And Occam's Razor states to take the simplest explanation possible.
Concluding that FTP has decided to hack into your client would require a motive and some sort of evil conspiracy to take your money, as well as a way of covering these things up. Presumably they're a fairly large company and if they were truly hacking into a user's account, they would have to worry about a whistle blower at some point or another.
On the other hand, concluding that there is a bug in the FTP client is incredibly simpler, and if you have ever done any sort of programming, you would know how easy it is for a bug to occur in a program the size of the FTP client.
So, unless there is actually an alternative theory called Achem's Razor which states to take the most malevolent explanation possible, then I can't say I have a clue what you're talking about.
I guess its a bug that FTP cant figure out huh? Does the bug intentionaly wait for big hands? Does the bug affect FTP support so they dont get or cant reply to my emails? Will the bug never be fixed so that FTP support can come up with an explanation? Does ACHEMS RAZOR always provide your answers? Are you easily satisfied and content? Are you naive?
Once again does the bug affect FTP support so they cant respond to my emails? What would Achems razor suggest?

Ignorance must be bliss. Look up Achems Razor in the dictionary and then proceed to feel ignorant because you will be by your own acknowledgement. Make sure it is a large one mk. That must be one randomly smart bug?
But I think Achems razor would more likely say that the bug doesnt affect FTP supports ability to respond to emails. I think it would say that support doesnt have a clue, and not enough courtesy to even acknowledge my complaint.

I played yesterday afternoon and 3 sessions didn't record at all in the HH file(mostly O8, but Horse as well). It's the 1st time that I'm aware of it happening. Doubt it's a hack job, I was thinking it had something to do w/the new updates. I reconfirmed through the client that it was still directed properly and haven't had a problem since. Contact support about it, they should be able to provide your activity.
also known as ockhams razor.
There's an old joke with a million variations: Why do you always find something in the last place you look for it - because after you find it you STOP LOOKING. You notice that the big hands are missing because the big hands are the ones you are looking for - you don't look for the random hands. As for the the problem with the program randomly not downloading hand histories (and not saving notes on opponents-which you don't mention but may be happening, at least it is in my case), I am still trying to track down the issue. I suspect it is a problem with either windows/Vista or the Vista/FT interface or possibly my admittedly fairly high security settings. I have tried reinstalling; I have contacted tech support; and I have been able to get it to work for a very short while, which makes me think it's on my end. Not nefarious, but more likely an aggressive security setup protecting me from something I don't need to be protected from.

Ignorance really must be bliss, look up forum pro here. Then proceed to feel ignorant because you will by your own acknowledgement! Geez my check musta got lost in the mail because I never received it. Or or or maybe when they stole your hand histories they took my check.
I emailed support 8 times on the subject and they are yet to get back to me. I want copies of your hand history files with missing hands. I am sure noone has the technology to hack in to a site. Its just not possible, right?
come on poker paid forum pros. Lets see you make an excuse for support. come on your paid to back up FTP you can come up with some kind of stupid sarcastic comeback or **** excuse.
1000 post of ragging on people. Making comments that derail t he subject. Brown nosed comments.
