on the freeplay tables there is one fella who burns the clock every hand for no apparant reason other than to annoy every else.

if it were cash or a tourney i could understand as there are times difficult calls have to be made and there are times i have wished for longer, but on freeplay??

is there any recourse can be taken?

    in a word NO 

    the timer is there for players to use as they see fit, if he does it every hand in any tourny he plays the maybe he's doing it to give no timing tells ........

    OR

    maybe he's doing it as he may suspect he's getting on peoples nerves, and gaining an edge from it

    whether it be freeplay tourny cash .... whatever

    not really tbh maybe moving tables but you get alot of wind up merchants on lower /freeplay stakes.

    before hand for hand play all the sat's where like this and it drove me nuts xso share your pain.

    This is done a lot on free rolls the reasons might be different ie not paying attention or wanting other people to bust out to gain a pound I thought this was normal when I started playing because most people done it if 300 get paid and there is 320 people left and I was short stacked I would use this method of play

    Are you saying that nothing beats a good hand?
    I hate to think what constitutes a slow roll....

    I would like to see every player allocated a time bank which reduced each time the bank was used re-setting after a certain amount of time, say,an hour or so.
