Mixed games are being very seriously considered, but since people can sit out games they don't like it might only be tourneys.

There's really nothing stopping somebody in a B&M from doing this, is there? I can see how online would let the player multitable and continue playing, I guess, but is it the case that a mixed-game player is required to play all rounds?

A fairly simple solution might be to require a player to either leave the table or continue posting blinds and antes for an entire rotation. So, you could hit + run during a Razz round, but if you continued sitting at the table you couldn't avoid paying until the other 3-4 games had each had a round.

Or, you could just give up and let assholes be assholes. It's not like there are no high-stakes tables at Stars for specialists to play at. And we don't try to come up with mechanisms for preventing a Stud player from playing 5 minutes on and 5 minutes off which still ties up a seat for 50% of the time.
