Sit out Next blind is more clear than sit out next BB

Some people prefer to "lurk" the forums, choosing to refrain from posting and simply reading posts made by others.

Have you ever considered doing this?

IMO zoom tables guys are not playing poker , guys are rushing to click the buttons without a minute of thoughts.

Of course it's relevant. If I'm going to quit I don't want to be forced to put money in the pot, no matter if it's BB or SB.

But please feel free to explain why it's lol.

I can understand where yer coming with wanting to fully shutdown a session - maybe they could add "Sit out next blind" option, but it'll never replace the "sit out next BIG blind option" cuz too many of us like money.

We want higher stakes! I can understand 2/4 possibly having a player liquidity issue, but I think it's pretty clear there will be enough players to keep 1/2 running smoothly.

from what i could tell so far SB,BTN,CO,MP,EP are random between 2 blinds.
BB won't imediately follow SB.
If you sit out just before SB ok you don't lose 0.5bb but you might lose potential EV from BTN,CO,MP,EP.
SB loss rate should be less than BTN winrate so even if you only miss the BTN it's -EV. If you miss 2+ positions then...

The way fpp is calulated is the same, with tighter play it may work out a little less.

It's 4 max per a pool, and there will be a 6 max total, but this is not in force yet.

We are looking into what might be causing this. We have made a small change to the authentication mechanism in ZOOM which we have rolled back. Can players who had this issue let us know if the problem persists?
