Title: Sitting out fair or what?
Post by: mahound on February 20, 2005, 04:51:32 PM
Just in a NL Hold'em tournament on Littlewoods.
What do people think about players who get a good chip count and then sit out avoiding all play until the field gets down.
I know that its not against the rules, but surely it is against the spirit of the game? I think that if you are in it you should be sitting at the table paying attention to the game,
would like to know what others think?

Well whether the guy leaves the table, or just sits at the table passively, makes no odds. He is entitled to sit & pass all day, it's just a fact of life.

Look on the bright side - feast on his blinds!

I agree! - more fool him.  you can't build your stack by sitting out!
