    No disconnect protection, and the minimum you can buy in for is 50 big blinds.

    So if you time down your hand is folded, and you cannot buy in for less than $100.

    No DP = No disconnect protection. This means that if you get disconnected during a hand then any you could be timed out and folded if you not reconnect in time.

    50bb Min = the minimum you can buy into the table for is $100 on a 1/2 table (50 multiplied by the Big Blind, which in this case is $2).

    It means that the minimum you can buy in for on this $1/$2 table is 50 big blinds, i.e. $100. The No DP stands for no disconnection protection. If your are disconnected from the interent your hand is folded if any action takes place, i.e. if you bet $7 preflop with AA, next guy re-raises to $25, your internet dies, your hand would be folded and you lose $7. In tables with DP, you would be deemed all-in for your $7 and the board would be played out. If your AA held up, you would win the blinds plus the $7 from the 3better. he would have the balance of the $25 ($18) returned to him. AFAIK, if you are multi-tabling, you can only have DP for one table
