I see that opinion is still divided, so I'm still not sure whether I did the right thing.

My situation was bubble play in a micro STT. Four players, I was one of the two <2bb stacks. I used all my time so that the blinds would go up, and the bb would put villian short stack all in on the next hand. I was out two hands later, but I cashed for third place.

So my situation was different. I wasn't consistenly stalling, I did it once to knock an opponent out and clinch a cashing spot. Is it the same? Worse? Is it wrong? I'm still not sure.

Annoying for the others. But so what? Looks like you're using the clock to your full advantage late in the 4th quarter. I approve (in this example).

You aren't breaking any rules, and you're using the mechanics of the game to your advantage. This is good - it's what smart poker players do.

Of course, your opponents will probably get pissed, and you might find yourself running out of opponents if you play on a small site. Decide if it's worth it.
