Default No DP......

ok, so Im a UK player and I go on a business trip to France on Wednesday - in the hotel I buy 10 hours of Internet time so I can still get my poker fix, everything is great and I use most of the credit by Friday morning and Im getting picked up from the hotel at 8am but at 07h50 I check my credit and see I have 8 minutes credit remaining......
I join a $5/$10 NLHE table (No DP....this bit is very important!!!) and in the first orbit I raise a couple of hands, I CB both (after hitting nothing) and get rr and fold in both.
Then I pick up AKo on the button and raise to $40, I get called by the SB (who has $2800) and all others fold.
Flop comes AQ3 with 2 Diamonds (I have no Dia), he checks so I bet 80 into the $90 pot, and he calls.
I then realise it is nearly 8am so I refresh my timer and see I have 32 seconds of credit remaining....oh F*@K... a 2 of hearts appears on the turn and he checks......What do I do???? I am not going to have time to get to a showdown as disconnection is seconds away........

I would definitely shove. It's the only way to guarantee you see a showdown, and you definitely don't want him to try to bluff.

Does the software have you auto-fold when you disconnect, or does it let you check behind?
