Opponent's searched cards not shown [bug report]

I cannot see cards that are searched from deck by my opponent - the card is presented, but I can only see the rear of the card, not the front.

For exampled, should my opponent search for a basic pokemon from their deck using a quick ball, I cannot see which pokemon they choose, since only the rear of the card is presented to me.

Had anyone else experienced this? Has it already been logged as a bug?

    I find this bug comes up when your device or internet speed isn't fast enough. Maybe ptcgl is not storing images of all the cards locally on your computer like ptcgo does. That means you're sending a request to the server for the image of the card and if it doesn't come back fast enough you've missed your opportunity to see the card.

    I am playing on a fresh install at the moment so maybe I'm completely wrong and haven't built up the card cache yet.
