Sitting out during breaks

How many people do this?

There is a huge amount of players who don't sit out and go for a walk or something, come back to find their entire time bank gone.

amazes me.

Just sit out as you go on break ....


You're welcome.

if you're not timing out at least SOME of the time; you're not playing enough tables.

Re: Sitting out during breaks

I ALWAYS sit out when theres 5 minutes until the break begins. Everyone knows the hand before break is rigged anyways, why even play?

Re: Sitting out during breaks

I come back sometimes and see that I lost some of my time bank, doesn't really make me too mad. But most of the time, when the break says 5 minutes, if your back before the 5 minutes is up, you won't. Lose. DA TIMEbAnK yo.

"if you're on time you're late, if you're early you're on time."

Also, you never want to come back to your grind station while sitting out, see you are dealt aces, and see your aces auto folded.

If you're timing out and not away from the computer, maybe you should play less tables. Roi > volume

more volume > a slightly higher roi cause you're there, bored, waiting for the unlikely times you'd otherwise time out on a hand that isn't rags.

Re: Sitting out during breaks

I'd rather lose my time bank which I rarely use anyway than coming back to a folded AA which I missed by like 10 seconds.

I noticed there's now an 'on a break' button in TN. Try that.

Re: Sitting out during breaks

i misclicked folded SUPER PREMIUMS, too, because i played so many tables. as well as the normal timing out. thank you table ninja.

and i was high as **** the whole time watching stuff on hulu. and playing ls/ms/hsmtt.

and even then, after a while i was able to play 26 tables at peak and only make like one mistake a day, so you CAN get good at multitabling. valuable skill imo
