very upset with player!
just played a DYM and with 4 players left, well 3 really cos 1 player was sat away all tournament, so i'm thinking guaranteed another double up, just thinking lets blind out the player whos away and we all double up but a player called XXX wouldnt raise over the player who was away, he would flat call and then check it down to the river and player who was away kept collecting the chips, chip leader had 8,000 and other player had same as me but with the way XXX was playing he wanted to save player who was away and both me and other player ended up all in and very luckily i survived thanks to a river card and other player also survived, but this should not happen, he was deliberatly just passing him chips, people will probably say i shouldnt name him but why not, if hes willing to do this on a poker table, then he deserves to be punished! going to customer service to report him now but not sure what to say, is it cheating?

It has happened to me couple of times but you cant prove its chip dumping. 1 player doing it told me he expected the other player to jump in and why should he risk any of his stack needlessly.
thank you.
your own fault for getting yourself in that position.
it may be the case that the player had connection problems,
i got heads up in a 4k tourny once and the guy got sat out,so i folded his blinds for 10 mins incase he got back on(he didnt)
Oh come on! The player that is away has no rights. Yes they have paid but their absence spoils the game and prolongs the outcome. Surely it is better for the players participating in the game to finish it quickly.

too many circumstances for my liking
You can have that... A circumstance of Colins ;-)
Sorry I think there are crossed wires here. Webby's post was that he thought the CL was acting to save the the absent player and was in fact doing so deliberately as they didnt raise the blinds in a DYM game with 4 players left and only one to go out the two live players defered to the chip leader letting him steal the blinds uncontested - but he didnt he called and then lost chips to an absent player by checking it down!
I understand the arguement and you seem to be having a different one!
Nobody infact cheated as far as I can tell. I have reread all the posts and there is an assumption that something underhand happened.
This needs a definitive and clear answer.... Can I call a "friend"?
I know you cant tell a player what to do and wouldnt suggest that.
Think we are now arguing a mute point.
Ok I didnt say anyone should tell anyone anything. I suggested it was incumbent on the CL to steal the Blinds not donate to an absent player.
Now is that clear?
However, what is more concerning is , Was this a case of "Double Accounting" ???
I have no Idea who the players where or what the stakes are in this DYM game , however had I been at that table I would not have liked what was happening either , the play seems most irregular and as you have already reported it to customer care, thats their job to find that if that was the case.
Problem is how can we prove it, if maybe a player has a 'mains' computer and a 'laptop' logged into the same game ..???? Be careful of 6 seat-er cash games, of any sort on any site... Check out thread "Who's mugging Who" !! glk Webby I feel for ya mate
