Bad Time for a Disconnect

A bizarre thing happened just now: I had a terrbile disconnect when I was playing at pokerdotcom and I get Aces and didn't know that recently, they made a no-limit in capping in their fixed limit games. I had my internet running and was able to check my gmail at the time as well so it was just the poker client running funny. I should have definitely won a lot more. With all this preflop raising, I knew my opponent had Kings (or at worst Aces as well). I decided to stop capping preflop just in case a King would peel off. My opponent still had about $20 to go so I am missing an extra $20 in my bankroll b/c of this debacle:

Thank goodness there was an allin protection here and I was able to salvage a profit from this insane hand.
