    The fact is if you have a set amount of time to play, then its not a breach of rules or even ettiquete to use that time.

    Letting people know it gets to you is really not the thing to do because once players know what tilts you you're pretty much -EV.

    Theres an old boy who plays live where I play who just wants to see flops and turns as cheaply as possible. He goes mental if people start raising preflop instead of limping. He then starts trying to bully them with mad 3 and 4 bets often with real cr4p.

    He never cashes. Re buys, re enters but never cashes.

    You dont happen to be from Newcastle do you ? I know this is probably 1 guy in most every casino up and down but it just rings so true. This fella almost has the table over when people start shoving less than 10bigs.

    Dear OP the SkyPoker clock is too short if anything .. next time just get out a good book. I timed out this evening trying to chase losses from an acca. Just no consideration for degenerates. Fkin. Man Utd

    Thanks all, some contradictions, but the general feeling is 'get on with it', which I will do. Just irked me at the time as had never seen it done so consistently. PS. I cashed in this tournament and the slow play did not result in a bad move or bad beat.

    Just wanted to get the take, I felt it really poor etiquette but respect it's not a breach of rules.

    Nay bother, I move on and will continue to enjoy 99% of the time!
