Yeah the disconnecting time was pretty harsh,Stars is pretty tilting how longer it takes every hand but it's better than snap folding. Agreed Disconnection timebank urgently needed I was disconnected from just Sky 3 times during this tournament so it's not like the problem is only isolated to individual cases 2nd, in the cruellest circumstances. After a 40 minute Heads up, she disconnected, & with blinds at 30k-60k or whatever, it was over within a minute. Not wanting to be harsh, but to all the people complaining about lack of sportsmanship - would it really be wise to wait until the blinds were 40k/80k or 50k/100k to give your opponent time to reconnect? - you might as well say if your opponent disconnects we'll decide the winner by flipping a coin.

There is a difference beween realising that your opp has discon'd and just letting the timer run down to give them just that wee little bit of extra time to re-connect and what this guy was doing last night - which was raising a miniscule sec straight away the make the hands/blinds ping round as fast as they could. So yes, in my mind, it was a complete lack of sportsmanship on the other oppo's part. I hear what you are saying though, but still I feel integrity and dare I say conscience 'could' have come into play in this particular instance. Would it be wise to wait - probably not ..... but I'd rather be left with extra time to try and reconnect therefore having a 'fighting' chance of coming back rather than be left trying to reconnect KNOWING that my oppo was 'stealing' the blinds whilst I did so. Title: Re: Event 2 "The Sky's The Limit" Tonight 8pm Post by: boldie on January 13, 2011, 09:30:24 AM Yeah, obv always try to wait. If you run out two or three times and oppo isn't back yet or it looks like oppo isn't coming back that's when you can finish it off..but give them plenty time IMO (I tend to wait and then fold when HU..I get their SB and he gets mine.)
Title: Re: Event 2 "The Sky's The Limit" Tonight 8pm Post by: doubleup on January 13, 2011, 03:14:41 PM WP Laxie have to say tho that i would steal the blinds as this appears to be the done thing in these situations.
