I usually get dealt queens while I'm away, so going to toilet is in fact +EV, since sometimes I come back just in time to click "I'm back" and win a nice pot.

I seldom play more than 2 tables at once so I don't have the problem that those playing more than that would. My solution is to pick a time where I'm folding trash utg and then go for it. I can usually get back before my turn to act in the BB next hand.

Some situations come up that give you much more time. Once I had such a chip lead in a 2 table satellite that I sat out long enough to take a shower. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Practice holding in your urine and it will stretch your bladder and you can go less often.

I can get by with twice a day and not be uncomfortable.

If for some reason I have to go while playing online, simply sit out a couple of hands and go. It's not a big deal.

This is actually NOT a good idea and can possibly lead to health problems.

Poker sites could easily sort out this problem by setting aside the first or last five minutes of every hour to be a designated toilet break across all tournaments.

If I have to leave the computer before a break I usually wait for a spot to fold utg then jet. Your next action will be acting last in the bb.
