i take that as "sitting out" not folding hands lol as i once thought,and am i write in saying that if you let the timer run out thus automatically folding your hand that counts as one sit out

Another question if I may. Can you sit out the blinds? Would be handy if the chip count was low (as is often with me ) ? and its on the way

Yes, i believe you dont have to pay blinds, when youre sitting out. Btw, since sone1 talked about this, i am wondering, why in tourneys and mini tourneys there is possible to sit out hands?? In official pro tourneys as well as most other poker clients, like fulltilt poker, pokerstars ect. ect. it is working differently. System just takes your blinds while youre not here and hand is folded. So that you lose tourney only when blinds have run you out... Why is here on OP66 different system? Sometimes i am late for multi-table tourney and i have too low time to come not late, in case i forgot the starting... Its like 3-7 minutes while youre out of tourney...
