It has come to our attention, that despite a previous warning,
you have again intentionally delayed the play in the Micro
Million Events.

Event 2012070067 10 time outs (we can provide hand history of
these hands if you want)

Our goal at PokerStars is to provide an enjoyable environment for
all of our players, and stalling tournaments is not acceptable
behaviour.

But Previous warning was that i can use timebank if it is my strategy but 30 40 or 50 timeouts llike i had before is to much.

Hallelujah, stars finally decides to mitigate the single most annoying thing in online poker. There is a god, and he isn't timing out for an extra 36c

Uh, stop timing out then?

Seriously, they warned you previously so you then did it 10 times in one game, why? There's no way timing out can help your game that much you're just being a knob.

There is few annoying things in game like example stalling but i am talking here about rules.
I ask PS to give me clean answer about stalling4. If u get answer that u can't do it 30-40 times couse it is to much, you accept it. You change your gameplan start play more risky but like most of players at short stack before bubble you play slow to make it, and they punish you for breaking the low this is unacceptable for me.

In 3x-turbo satellites it's standard to use it, but I dislike people who do it in regular tournaments, I don't understand why you didn't fold right at the end instead of timing out and you were warned so I think stars did a good job.

Looks like Pokerstars are time-banking/stalling before responding to your e-mails. Perhaps you should send them a warning.

Hard to argue against your point, imo.

Just play poker ffs do you realise how boring it is waiting for you to act, especially if you are a recreational player playing only one table.

I'm glad pokerstars is banning people for this.

If timinig out your hands in a part of your gameplan you should be banned for your lifetime - start playing poker, and if playing is 'risky' (LMAO) then just stop doing it fish... Use timebank for what is was created for. It wasnt created for fishes that think playing is too risky and wait till other players will be eliminated.

wp Stars, wp.
Sure thing, tournament delayers are annoying and measures should be taken to minimize that problem, but still they are just doing what the software allows them to do. If it goes out of hand like for OP who even admits it's his strategy it's nice that Stars punish it. But still I think it's kinda close.

Maybe software could be improved so preflop autofolds happen more quickly once the player folded due to timeout or close to it a couple of times.

This is an overall problem in tournaments. That players get punished for it is probably rather rare.

you were stalling, scummy angle shoot, you got off easy, i think everyone who stalls once in a tourney should have their entire lifetime tournament winnings confiscated and distributed to people who aren't dbags

you are probably also one of the tards that times out when the tables are playing hand for hand anyway, which wastes everyones time, so you should pay everyone else in every tournament you have ever stalled in for wasting their time

I understand that maybe u dont like my strategy, in mtt tournaments i would never wait to 30-40 TO but its all about points, 10 points give me almost as much as victory in this tournaments, u read comments and write the same **** good for PS they bann you for bad play, i see u really dont know the structure of this game, 1 question for you all, you would not wait 10 timeouts in satelite IF YOU KNOW that because of it u will get packgage to PCA ?

We all understand your point. Either way, you're still affecting the integrity of the game and making it highly unpleasant for everyone else involved. If I was one-tabling this tourney with the last $ in my account there is a high chance I tilt-jam the next ten hands and never deposit for another month. No good for stars.

They are a business, and they don't need yours.
