Ok. Lets make it easier. Please record screencast when it breaks. And if this repeatable - I will award this bounty.

I.e. I need not "sometimes" description, but rather "do #1, #2, #3 and you will get frozen buttons" or something like this.

Just like you describe that you had problems with buttons while do some streaming, I can confirm I do not have these problems even over tor. That's why I believe there should be a pattern breaking things. Or it is simply how end user internet connection works.

You play like 2 hands and you think "oh ok, it worked, i'm done"  DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND PEOPLE PLAY FOR DAYS.  You'll never find your answer.  Try playing on TOR for a few hours.  I guarantee you'll start seeing massive problems.

1. play for a few hours against an opponent

2. where players are playing very aggressively and pressing a lot of buttons

3. it should be limit rather than NL, b/c limit invovled more clicking.

and you will get frozen buttons and problems, simple enough.  No one is going to possibly provide you with exactly what you're looking for, or else those problems won't exist.

edit- what you are really asking for is worth like 500 btc's.  you are pretty much asking "tell me how to fix this problem exactly"  no one is going to be able to form an exact amount of steps and then take a screenshot to show u.  and then when you replicate it, it will do the same.  that is virtually impossible.

I need someone who can break table in my https://betco.in

Here is why - several months ago it was normal every few hands refresh table due missing buttons, some actions going weird or game just freezes itself. I found why this was happening and fixed it.

Now, I still read reports from time to time that people loose control buttons during game at the table. I am looking into server logs, other players - and these report looks more like connectivity issue on player side... But I still want to try to break it without loosing connection.

So...

I will pay 5 btc to person who first will come with set of steps to break game at the table at https://betco.in . I only count breaks which I can recreate locally. I.e. I should follow you steps and get no buttons and ticking timer, and eventually timeout without being able to do any action.

Post it here, so we have evidence who did it first.

Two (or more) different ways of breaking things each get their own 5 btc!

Here is how to break things at the tables:

1.) connectivity issue: if a player is doing other stuff, like streaming video or other web related tasks, tables tend to bug some times and buttons seem to lag.  People are used to multi tasking while playing poker online.  So it would be unfair to ask players to "don't use so much connectivity."  Players are used to playing on ultra crisp sites like pokerstars, where there are almost never any problems or bugs.  Pokerstars works well with the crappiest connections such as dialup.

2.) constant pressing of buttons (while connectivity is using other high bandwidth apps like youtube), buttons tend to freeze up AND pressing a button VERY quickly would sometimes freeze opponents buttons.  What would happen sometimes is that buttons would be OVERLAPPED on top of each other.  For instance, i see "Raise" "Fold" "call" and the betting amounts to enter.  However it is not my turn yet.  What is really showing up is just the options like:

[] fold
[] check/fold
[] call
etc

3.) To answer your question of how to break things, there really isn't a totally specific step to take to necessarily break things.  It just does it after too many connections and clicks in a game.  Usually video stream and high bandwidth apps will freeze the buttons and tables.

A lot of the problems with the buttons isn't that it necessarily dissappears, but that it overlaps over the actual control that should appear when connectivity and a lot of clicking is going on.  But it is a poker site, so obviously there should be a lot of clicking going on.

Update:
The easiest way - record screencast. I will do exactly same steps and if I will get same problem - I will award bounty to screencast author.

Update 2:
There another way to create meaningful report for me - table runs in verbose mode and if you use Chrome or FireFox with Firebug - there will be alot of stuff going on in the console. Leave it open while playing and when something wrong happen - copy/paste the whole log from console to pastebin.com or similar service and post here a link to it with small description what happened.
