why would someone get booted ?

why would someone get booted from the table playing texas holdum poker ?

If you are talking about online poker, they may get booted for various reasons. Most likely, the player (I assume it was you, because how would you know if someone else was booted?) was in violation of the poker site's terms and conditions.

Most likely, the poker site suspected one or more of the following:
* The person used a fraudulent account to deposit money on the site
* The person has multiple accounts with the site
* The person was found guilty of collusion or some other cheating method
* The person was spamming the tables with advertisements for web sites
* The person was using abusive language at the tables

It can be anything, but "your friend" was probably acting in a way not permitted by the site.

    This can be the problem!
    Yahoo games use virtual memory to play. Running low or out of virtual memory causes game to freeze. Increasing your virtual memory helps with the freezing/getting booted problem. You can increase your memory by going to start button, settings, control panel, system, advance tab, performance, advance tab, virtual memory, change it, make it 2000 kb or higher, In both boxes, click apply then ok .
