Default 6 person SNG. Everyone disconnects but you, what do you do.

6 person $30 Pot Limit SNG on Pacific. Everyone has around 800-1200 chips. Blinds are 15/30.

You're in a car race. Everyone but you suffers mechanical failures. Do you:

1) continue moving at best speed?
2) park your car untill some of your competitors have made repairs?

Put that way, I think the correct answer is pretty obvious.

do you think, with the exception of someone doing it to spite MY post, that a single person would have voted for slow down? get real.

i'm a very ethical person, but this is the internet. if the disconnected players were smart, they would show the histories to support and let the sites reimburse. we are poker players, nobody would do anything but power raise.

Raise it up until you win the tourny. Someone will report it anyway and the other players will be refunded, plus you'll get to keep the first prize.

ok, thanks guys, btw glad to finally stop lurking and start posting.

i did raise every hand for i can't even remember how many straight hands. two people came back, one was too late, the other doubled up 2x in a row. we then went heads up and it started me 5000 him 1000.

somehow i let my lead slip away (doh) but then ended up winning.

Did either of the returning players berate you for raising/playing quickly?
And this was on UB, right?

this was on pacific. its happened to me 3-4x before, and obviously i didn't get a break. although one time when i disconnected there were 3 people left and when i came back it was heads up. smooth move on the other players part to lose to a disconnected person.

well, that explains it. all your competitors were in one room and lost their connection together. kind of like the night that someone caught propoker sitting out all at once. that was spooky. who caught that and made the GO TO PRO POKER NOW! post? lorinda? haven? snowshit?

classic thread. how do i bump that??

In a heads up SNG I always give 5 mins of sitting out before I start to play again.

However, in this scenario, you just know the first guy back is going to raise like a lunatic, so I get the chips as fast as I can.
