Gave me a good idea as well. She is insisting I go for dinner at her Mums on Sunday. Don't fancy it much, so all she is getting is a photograph to prop up on the plate.
I haven't got an argument, there isn't an argument! This whole conversation is on the verge of becoming 'farcical' "skybet can see when this is happening and set up a system whereby if u sit away for a certain number of hands then ur buy-in will be forfieted and u will be ejected from the table ............ maybe then people can at least earn their payout" THAT! says it all!!

get a grip everyone if u pay ypur money u do what u like, if u play live its just the same, your blinds are taken untill your out, you r just one of a group playing cards thats all it is

yeh but if ur playing live then at least u r not ABSENT derrrrrrrrrr
this debate keeps coming up again and again, if you cant beat an away player then you must be rubbish, if you pay your money then you do what you like and tough on everyone else, learn to live with it!!
poker is as much about strategy as the cards u r dealt. should they wish to sit out in order to cash, and this is a succesful strategy for them, then so be it! can be annoying tho i do agree!
right!,this sort of thread keeps gettong posted every so often so here's how to deal with it,a player who has payed for a game can play it however he wants(within the rules) that includes sitting out for the whole duration of the game,or going all-in every hand if they so wish. for each kind of player you must find a way of playing them... and for this kind of player i would wait until one off the money then take turns stealing his blinds until he enters the game or is blinded out, simples.......

take turns stealing the blinds? i've never seen this happen, usually players bust out whilst getting into a major battle when it comes to blind stealing the away player! i was in a game yesterday where me and another player were shortstacked on the bubble along with the away player. did the big chip leader allow us to take turns stealing blinds? no, he just went all-in every hand instead.
