Hi all,

for 15 minutes I have been unable to log into BBO. I get the message

"Connection lost..............(0)"

All other parts of the internet are working fine. I have 56.6K dial-up

I was watching Ireland v Netherlands in Open Room. We were at bd28 - the goulash. Prooijen had just bid 5♦ (to show a club void) when Presto! I was kicked out - couldn't get back in for about 5 mins but luckily managed to get back to see Hanlon play in 7♣ doubled - a good sac! There might be an appeal on that as he is reported to have bid 7C after loud cheering in the Vugraph room when Brink bid 6H - which apparently is quite close to the players ;)
I wonder what was said to Director?

i don't know, but the way it was reported, it was the netherland fans who cheered... just their tough luck that this cost their team
