Ok, i go onto a cash table. Feeling lucky, i click a 8/10 table (prefer 10 seaters) and go onto it. One seat was taking during the loading the other is reserved and taken quickly afterwards. So i look around the table and theres three people Sitting out. I wait for 10 mins (around 5 or 6 hands, if not more) and they are still sat out. I think this is unfair, that people can walk away for ages and not get removed from the table.

    Hi guys

    The official ruling of if you are sat at a cash game and you opt to sit out and remain sat at the table, once 5 hands have been played without you, you will be removed from the table allowing other players who are waiting to join the table and sit down.

    hope this helps,

    rich.

    I dont think you get long enough for a break , I usually do a 5 hour session on a night, half way through I like to get a drink, use toilet, grab a snack, etc etc  I literally have to run to get it all done before I am kicked off tables.

    The problem is when people lose their money, they seem to be left on the table for ages.

    I think ruling should be you can sit out for 5 minutes and then kicked off, either if its for a break or you lost your money. As on a tight six handed table 5 hands can be played in 2 minutes. Where as if its a 10 handed it may take 10 min for 5 hands if players are loose.

    GREAT Post, which sums up the problem perfectly.

    It must be quite a problem for ajs, too, as he plays a lot of Tables simultaneously.

    I used to have an AJS motorbike.

    I think I had 8 or 9 motorbikes before I became a 4 wheel man.

    I'm seriously tempted to buy a motorbike again, actually.

    My Father had an AJS with sidecar. When I was 12 I had a Lindop sports bow for Christmas, with 36 inch brass tipped arrows, one of which I fired into my younger brothers thigh. We made the trip to hospital with Mum and me in the sidecar and dad driving with little brother riding pillion with the arrow still sticking out of his leg. We inadvertently invented those sticky-out things that cyclists use nowadays to make cars keep their distance.
