Default Re: How to handle someone leaving in the middle of your one table tourname

Blind them out.

Sometimes they get stupid and decide that going all in is the best way to get eliminated.
In one example, the chip leader wanted to leave in an STT. So he decided going all in preflop was the best course of action. He lost the first hand and told everyone what he was trying to do. so he's down to average stacked. Goes all in with jack 8, gets 3 callers who are also holding hands just as bad. He ends up eliminating 2 of them crippling another with a straight and now has over 40% of the chips in play. He continued going all in until he finally "sat out". But I think he still made the money.
