Maybe if you'd play more than 3 tables you wouldn't get so bored in the 10 seconds that it takes someone to make a decision. It's not like we're talking only about people playing slow preflop and being forced to fold. When you're already in a hand and have to fold because you take longer than the tiny 8 seconds allotted, it's [censored]. You should be afforded a longer time than that.

i play 8 tables and i can keep up with [censored]. mfers that play like 12 tables or are just slow on 8 piss me off, i can't stand having 8 open and still having every single 20-15 type stall out and time out time after time wtf.

also, i have no idea what this post is about other than you didn't act in time? i dont' get it.

No. They are called speedtables for a reason, you should not be afforded longer time than that. Play the regular tables for some more time.

I sort of see the check instead of fold argument, although I like it the way it is now. But no way you should be afforded more than 8 seconds if that is the standard at the speed tables.

He's right - since you were playing on Party where they use all sorts of crazy decks.

Yes it does. Forces players to drop some tables, which leads to them not having to use their full time on every single decision.

It's 8 [censored] seconds bro, not their time bank.

If you have money invested (which you always do if check is an option) it is your time-bank unless you have already used it completely, then it's only 8 seconds

I still think it should go into the timebank for PF.
