    Default Would you in a HU Tourney?

    I'm just curious as to your opinions on HU Tourneys. When you find out that your opponent is disconnected do you steal the blinds till they reconnect? I know it's obvious when you have a sit out, you got to or you'll be sitting there for hours and holding up the tourney. What do you do?

    I would take take take

    This happened once when there was 4 people left in a game and I slow played when a person disconnected. Another player later said that
    that was a class act.

    Funny thing was I was in the bathroom and didn't know anyone had disconnected.

    I'm a hero for taking a piss

    Of course I would, just as fast as I could. At the poker table it's each man or woman for himself or herself. If I'm at a multi-table with all sit outs and only one other person playing me, I will share...It's like free money!

    Yes, I would take the blinds. It's not my fault they got disconnected. Poker is all about winning.

    I'm playing to win, and I payed my buy in thinking they registered and were ready to play.

    It's not my fault their connection is wack.

    Am I supposed to punish my bankroll for them disconnecting.

    I don't think it should be looked down upon either.

    Alls fair in love and poker.

    I'm sure you've heard that once or twice before.
