There is no limit to the number of times that you can fold. You will get "dropped" from a tourney if you "Sit out" 4 hands

Which means if the computer has to fold for you,because you "timed-out"...you can fold as many times as you'd like...

As explained above it is because he did sit out timed out a hand and didn't click the "I am back button", then he stayed in this sit out mode for 4 hands. You get eliminated for that.

But you can fold manually or by clicking the "next action" fold button as many times as you want. You someitmes have veeeeeeeeeeeerrrrrrryyyyyyyyyyyyyyy long stretches without playable hands and the correct play is then of course to fold as long as necessary (or try a move, but at you own risk).
