Aerriza 0 Posted August 23, 2006 Share Posted August 23, 2006 Ok this happened at a SNG. Everyone folds down to me who's in the small blind, I complete (8c 9c), and he times out, flop comes I bet (thinking he wasen't there ><), he reraises, I fold, he shows kings ><. It cost me an extra 600 ><.Anyone else seen this done? It might not be the best way to make money with kings, but I would rather be outplayed then have this happen ><.

rivergirl 2 Posted August 23, 2006 Share Posted August 23, 2006 if he timed out, he should've been folded or all in, i dont' recall a site that allows a player to time out and stay active in the hand...i could be wrong but i just don't recall ever seeing it Link to post Share on other sites

Aerriza 0 Posted August 23, 2006 Author Share Posted August 23, 2006 No it's not play money, it was on FTP. If someone times out they automaticly fold/check. In a SNG they do the same thing next hand, in a cash game they are automaticly dealt out the next hand. Link to post Share on other sites

He was in the small blind and completed the bet. The BB hand was still live. When it times out all it does is check the hand.

rogerwilco 0 Posted August 23, 2006 Share Posted August 23, 2006 I think this is too stupid to possibly have been intentional. Maybe he had a bad connection and reconnected just in time? Link to post Share on other sites

nosoul 0 Posted August 23, 2006 Share Posted August 23, 2006 Don't most sites tell you when a player is away? I've seen players time out and still be active. Every time I've seen it, it's been a sign of strength. I'm not sure why that is, but they always have a big hand. Link to post Share on other sites

sig331 0 Posted August 23, 2006 Share Posted August 23, 2006 He probably didn't disconnect. His timer ran down and it checked him. Then it probably said you will be checked/folded until you return. Click the button and there was a I'm Back button. It checked him, he clicked the button. you acted first and he raised. It just automatically acted for him because his time ran out. Like on a football game. If the defense doesn't pick a play it automatically picks it and keeps the game going. I hope 600 was the minimum bet, since if he had disconnected that would have been all you needed for him to fold. Link to post Share on other sites

Yea 600 was the minimum, it was a turbo SNG, so blinds where going up fast.Oh well, I was just kinda pissed off at it , I was wondering if anyone else had seen this also though.
