Here’s a sad but humorous exchange I had with FTP support today. For what it’s worth, I’m pretty sure I would have folded the river anyway, though that’s hardly the point:

I just played a hand in the $1000 NLHE FTOPS event in which I activated my time bank, for what I believe to be the first time in this event, on the river. Within seconds, my hand was folded. Could you help me to understand what happened? I looked back through the chat log and couldn’t find a previous instance of my having used the timebank. Why did i have so little time available. I ended up folding a good hand in a big pot because my time expired, so I’d like t understand what happened. Thank you, Andrew

blue “Time” button will appear above the betting slider on the lower right side of the table window.  Read the complete post...
