PokerTH Web Client

[Spitessbir]

I tried the web client today, but there was a disconnection error during the game. Now I can't log in again no matter how many times I try.

This is the error on the login page:

“Spitessbir” is already in use. A previous session may still be active: wait ~2 min, or pick another nickname, then reconnect.

Thanks for the report, sorry about that.

When the connection drops mid-game, your previous session keeps holding your nickname on the server for a while — and the client gave up instead of waiting.
Fixed in the build going out now: it keeps your name, retries automatically, and puts you back in your seat.

Hard-refresh the page (Ctrl+Shift+R / Cmd+Shift+R) to get the update. If the name is still refused right now, wait two or three minutes — it does unlock.

Still not working.
These are the messages and what happens:
1. ' "Spitessbir" is still in use - retrying in 30 seconds (1/3)...'
2. 'IP Blocked 60s'
3. 'You can reconnect now.'
4. Click 'Connect'.
5. Back to Step 1 in an infinite loop.

Can you try to log into another mode like local or lan start a game and exit with the quit button. Then try again internet connection.
Is this trick working?

I started and quit from a Local game and then tried Internet game again but it made no difference.

I don't know what changed, but I can now get an internet connection again.

I have another issue I would like to address. I imported a custom card deck which works fine but when I go back to the Style settings later my imported card deck is not in the list of Cards even though it continues work in the game.

Thanks a lot again for your feedback!
1. A new connection system went live this morning. Your session now survives short network drops — including switching between WiFi and 4G/5G — and you get your seat and chips back where you left them instead of being disconnected. Overall it should feel much more stable.
2. About your second point: that was a real bug, thanks for catching it. Imported card decks kept working in game but disappeared from the deck list in the Style settings, so they couldn’t be re-selected later. A fix also went out this morning — your imported deck should now show up in the list again.
Please do a hard refresh (Ctrl+Shift+R, or Cmd+Shift+R on Mac) to make sure you’re on the latest version, and let me know if the deck still doesn’t appear.

Now works correctly after the update.

I would like to congratulate you on your web client app. I thinks it's brilliant.

Feature request:
I have a custom stats app which relies on the creation and updating of local pdb log files during a live game. So it would be great for me if your web client had the option for the automatic creation and updating of local pdb files during a live game, the same as the other PokerTH clients.
