Refund button when trying to register for tournament

It happens pretty often that I only get a Refund button when it's time to register for a tourney (mostly Treasure Trap), instead of the usual Register button. This usually occurs when I played the tourney before and closed the window after I lost my chips.
I heard this happened to more people.

This happens usually when you have came out from playing a tourney and keep the screen open ready to join again. Its happened to me on the omaha tourney.
If you close the screen, refresh the lobby page and open the window again, it is then generally ok and the 'Register' button is displayed.

Hope this helps :)

Depends what position, you come out of the tourney, if you win there maybe not enough time.

Im sorry you find my suggestion funny but i was only trying to help and to see if i can help solve the problem that some have been having.

I think the problem is that I see "All in" in my old seat and the regular players buttons "Sit out" and "Muck losing", which shouldnt be shown to losers like me.
The best tip is probably that I shouldn't close the window if I want to play next, but can I do anything else when I already closed it and there's no time to conduct the whole procedure you set out above?

That is very curious mmxx. I could maybe understand you seeing the "Sit out" and "Muck losing" as a glitch if you lost and stayed on the table without closing, but not if you closed the window and come back. After you do close the table and come back, do you get the small screen at the bottom that says something like "You may register for the next tourney after the last player is eliminated" ???

Unfortunately now I left the window open, but got an activity time-out.... So I had to close it and reopen it again. Good thing is, I can answer your question: no I don't get the small screen at the bottom that says something like "You may register for the next tourney after the last player is eliminated"

if you get activity time out when you leave open a window you could just press refresh.

Refreshing a table never seems to work with Firefox... How do you guys do that?
