CHANGES - Cash Table Sit-Out Period

Tikay10

This has been changed, it is now FIFTEEN hands.

Why?

Many of the regular grinders found that on long sessions, if they needed a quick convenience break, or go make a cup of tea, found themselves "thrown off" the Table mid-session, & their Seat gets taken by next on the Waiting List.

There are pros & cons to this, & it needed careful thought, but on balance, it is believed to be the correct decision.

Yo Simmy,

I'm not entirely sure, but I believe it varied (depending on Tables) between 10 & 12 hands.

This, in fact, is now a very simple one to change, up OR down, & they'll see how it performs, & feedback, over the next few weeks, & if it needs further tweaking, it's a simple "one click" jobbie.

Anything to stop me sprinting up and down 2 flights of stairs to get a drink is fine by me!

That was EXACTLY the sort of feedback we were getting, hence the tweak.

What about cash HU Tikay when no hands are being played.

It is a problem when somebody has not stood correctly and is still taking a seat sat out

It does not apply to Heads Up, Boxy, my apologies, I should have mentioned that.

As to peeps not "standing" correctly, yes, noted, but as I said, it's between a rock & a hard place, & on balance, it's not something where a perfect solution exists, the change was deemed, overall, to be the correct course.

i think the issue with the heads up tables is mostly people just sitting out and nothing happening. you can wait a very long time before they stand meaning u cant always get on or get ur next opponent.

I agree with the new 6 max changes tho, no more rushing to the kettle anymore

If the drink tastes a little odd Spornybol I would think about changing your system!

Thats a good change tikay. If people just sit out vs me in a Hu table i just creat another and leave that table. Simple enough
