Default Re: Stealing blinds whilst disconnected

I think you should sit out a reasonable amount of time to give the guy a chance to reconnect. Maybe 5-10 minutes or so. If he doesn't reconnect by then, it's his fault for not having a backup connection available.

I had this happen to me head's up in the FTP 163 once. I disconnected right as we got head's up. In the time it took me to reset my cable modem and reboot my computer, about three minutes probably, he had won the tourney by insta-raping my blinds. Pretty crappy IMHO but not much I could do about it. I did go out and buy a new cable modem, which did wonders for disconnects.
