How can this happen? (888 software bug?)

I posted the BB 2 hands in a row, followed by a SB?
How can that ever happen, its against the rules....
Even though there is hand identifiers aren't sequential (but then they wouldnt be) look at the timestamps of these hands and you'll see I wasnt imagining it, the hands are only 50 seconds apart!

Extra player moved to the table. Could ahve been utg or utg+1 previous hand and gave him the preference to not posting bb.

But email support to fix that bug up.

Can't wait for 6 months to have passed. Pacific might be running like a true poker game.

shags wasn't on the table for the first BB post, but was for the 2nd. I think that's what Brett is talking about.

And, yeah, it shouldn't have happened.

you sure it is actually a *rule*? I seem to remember Garth on here rebutting people when they complained about being moved from UTG+2, to BB (or something similar). His response was that NPL were *overly* good in moving people to the exact same spot, and in the big MTTs you could not expect anything similar.

Boils down to, they'll strive to move you to similar positions, don't count on it.

Seat 4 was empty first hand, not having a go, just being clear.
