"Server Problems"

It's a little disturbing when you are poised to win a 1 Million chip Tournament, you are dealt pocket queens, when all of a sudden, you are no longer able to click any buttons.
Has this ever happened to you? In the middle of a game, you press the Check button, but your time keeps running out? Out of desperation you click Raise, Fold, anything in hopes of regaining control of your player.

It's happened to me several times, but what is interesting is that this is something that NEVER used to happen before. The response by players is, "Oh it's server problems".

Zynga needs to understand that if players are risking the chips they earned, and I must add that these chips have a monetary value, it is best that players lose their chips as a result of the game, not any problems as a result of interface or programming, or any other technical issues that Zynga is having.
Capiche?

The iPhone Player Advantage

My buddy Chip let me in on a secret.

When you play Zynga's Texas Holdem on an iPhone, you:

• Can see all chat messages, including people who are not playing
• Are always seated in the same position in a tourney unless someone chooses the seat first
• If your buddy request is blocked, they can still send you one

How do you know you are playing against someone with an iPhone?

• You can tell if they are using the old iPhone app if the player has no pic.
• The 1st one is usually seated at the left side of the table near the dealer chip.
• They have no ranking (eg. Ace, Rounder, Champion) above their avatar.
