your opinion

[azreal1]

what is your opinion on people that will purposefully wait as long as they can to make the blinds go up so the short stacks are forced to go in quicker...it seems a growing trend and i for one really don't like it..i even had one guy yesterday go so far as to use his time bank balance so i would be all in next hand (backfired as i hit a straight HA)

your thoughts?

[ginobliman]

i definitely agree, and this play should always backfire here.

only time i slow down is when theres 2 or 3 left til money and im on the bubble. Sry but id rather small cash then not cash at all. All that time just to bubble out sucks but thats the only time i will use a time bank up...

[watte29]

like abwil said: only in very important spots I am using time...

[royalpat]

i will slow down when final table just a couple of seats away - hoping someone else goes out before me if I have a small stack

[azreal1]

slowing down and purposefully making someone hit a higher bb is 2 different things, personally i never slow down i play the game as its meant to be played if i dont like the cards i fold if i like them i play them but good to know who to avoid in any tourneys

[bmeelneg]

Your timebank is to be used as a player sees fit ... much like how a football coach uses timeouts as he sees fit. However they use them is not a concern to me. When its hand for hand though it can be quite annoying.

[azreal1]

how a player ses fit to use it, does not make it right...

[BLINGBLAOW]

I think its a dirty tactic but we cant do shit about it

[AlexKur]

used it previously to really be just ITM (1,5BI).. now's playin' on a higher result. you should never show suck actions here. if ur stack is so low due to that time, that's your fault.
