Oh no 5 mins is too short, lets say after level 1 that is about 10 mins

Sometimes I will intentionally sit out the 1st 5 mins or so just to weed out some of the donks. But if I do that then I click sit out........

the "sitout trick" wow that was funny. Ive heard on some of the lower stakes u can make your way into the money without playing, but i dont think thats possible.

Hey lol I made it one time in a sit and go, I was shocked Top 3 paid and 10 needed players start and I finished 3rd on that day without playing I don't know what has done the chipleader to them but I think we had lots of victims.

Thats because on the lower stakes there are a lot of donks, with any patience, and they just play any hand from any position.

When i started to play with real money i thought i was going to see some better players, but ive found out the players are as bad as on the freerolls.

I see this happen in multi table tournies, especially the private ones. There is always a full table of people sitting out. I don't see the reason of signing up for a tournament without any intention of playing.

I know that stuff happens and sometimes players sign up and then leave or forget about them.....
