I just have to vent. I am playing a tourney on stars (play money, i am a newlywed college student not yet making the big bucks...) and i am heads up against someone that disconnected. AND HAVE BEEN FOR THE LAST 30 MIN. i, thank goodness, was chip leader when this happened, (about 8,500 v. 4,400) and I have had to wait for this douche to blind out, 15 seconds per hand. this is ridiculous...then, he was all-in, and won, so i had to wait some more!!! Is this a common problem??? shouldnt there be something in place that makes situations like this NOT happen? I know its only play money, but still...

There really does need to be a limit at the amount of time you can spend away on these tourneys, especially if you disconnected...

When I used to play these sng's for play money back in the day, people would do that once in awhile when I had a good chip lead and heads up. One guy actually told me he was disconnecting on purpose so I'd get pissed off and leave so he could therefore blind me out. It is pretty ridiculous when people sit out. But oh well.

either way, i waited him out and won, so that works, but it was highly obnoxious... :shock: :roll:
