Goko is very slow for me, to the point where checking somebody's rating before joining their game usually means someone else has joined first; so sometimes I join a game and then leave when I find out that the other player is not near my level. For some reason, this time goko decided that actually I'd be playing both of those games, so I saw the opening hand of the first game and then it switched to another game with different cards and a different opponent. I was able to play the second game without too many problems - the screen occasionally flickered with a portion of the other game screen, and the game log (using the browser extension) showed half-way through that I lost the first game by default.

How on Earth can this even happen? When I click to join a different game, leaving the game I am in should be part of that atomic operation. Is my browser literally sending "leave this game" and "join this game" as separate instructions to the server, and this time the first one didn't arrive?

Yeah I've had that, about a month ago.

[Warfreak2]

Bump because I just had this again.

I was wondering if this was possible because I'd like to try to play 2 or three hands at a time, just like with poker. I don't see why you shouldn't be able to, really.

I seem to remember hearing that you can play two hands in the same game if you log in from different browsers.

Bump because this is something like the fourth or fifth time this has happened to me.

[Obi Wan Bonogi]

Did it happen against me?  Because I had some weird DC that I've never had before when you and I loaded up a game.

[Warfreak2]

Yes, you were the opponent in the game that I wasn't able to play. Sorry!

[Archetype]

It happened to me a couple of days ago. I didn't really understand what was going on until it flashed to the end screen of a different game and said I had lost.

Yes, this has happened to me at least 4 times, usually after I drop out of one game & join another at the last minute.  Probably covers at least half of my "quit rate".
