    imo just steal his blinds if hes an unknown. If its a regular you play with more often, ask a host/moderator to pause and wait a little (if you have the time..)

    Just wondering why ppl extend courtesy to a reg but not someone else? If you truly believe that disconnecting is part of the game and bad luck for whomever it happens to why not treat everyone the same?

    If its shitbagish not to give a reg a chance to reconnect then its shitbagish to do the same to a nonreg.

    So I guess the question is do you want to be a shitbag or not?

    The other point is, if you are looking at it from a completely objective/analytical standpoint, we should prolly assume that if its a reg we know he's prolly gonna be better than some random donk. So if our true interest is using any advantage we can to win, then it would follow that we should be more aggro about min raising the reg, eh?

    Does no-one else find these opinions downright racist? Pretty disappointing, especially coming from a mod, in my humble opinion.

    i would wait prob a few mins for anyone. i wouldnt sit out as well, but would time bank or let it run down every hand for a while. i wouldnt use up my whole time bank. i would delay for anyone tho. on stars may be tempted to email support and have them pause for 10mins and if he isn't back by then, unlucky for him.
