    Are you sure this player was not a player who might have won a nice stack early on who's decided his stack is good enough for a short prize and therefore heads away?

    I exited 66th place a time the blinds were 50/100, If this player was an away player his chipstack should already be less than 1000 unless the rest of the table were poor enough to do no betting and fold post flop when ever this guy was in the BB.

    how about showing us you very first hand and a hand of from around the time of his exit?

    ive cashed on a few occasions in freerolls being away, i generally last longer :) this does sound like someone getting a stack then sitting away tho.

    This was a miracle really as the player kept winning every time they were all in from the blinds. In theory it is possible to win the whole tournament whilst being away.

     He started with the starting amount of chips, never played a hand. crazy, this could be the way forward for me as I cant be any worse lol.

    If he really was away the entire MTT then this guy has got to put the lottery on now, even mattbates lucky is small in comparison to this

    I was at the table with rabdeniro when this guy was about to cash and it was unreal he would not be beat, i was there for about 10 mins and every orbit i thought this time, i could not believe it when he cashed happy days when he checks he's balance.


    EDIT just had a thought hope the player who bubbled does not read this he/she might not be best pleased.

    Sitting out is a credible stratergy that I rely on, I forgot last night tho.

    in freerolls if players are not there and dont play a hand in the first level,they should be removed from the tournie imo.
