Leo001 from United Kingdom plays 120 min table and won't make a move. It's difficult to sit it out at 2am in the morning so I lost my points. (it's tough I know) but you should all be aware of this. PS Im back after 2-years absence Trinity_ <img src="http://www.gamecolony.com/forumhtm/images/face1.gif" width=15 height=15 border=0 align="absmiddle">)

Perhaps

Fortunately, I've never had that happen to me on this site. I guess it's one of the risks of joining a 120 table. Perhaps there could be (if there isn't already) a system to cover the situation where a player does not make his/her very first move in say 10 minutes. Welcome back, have fun!

Thanks for your support

It's a very good idea the 'safety valve' However it's so infrequent (I never knew it to happen to me before)that I wanted to tell everybody. After I quit the table, the same sequence of events occured to another player in the room. The opponent made 2/3 moves and then stopped. In future I will be wary of 120 min tables!! It's good to be back.
