Supercow to the rescue!!!
…al rescate !..is more precisely.
tomato ou de tomates
We’re currently discussing amongst the staff what the best implementation would be, hopefully we’ll agree shortly on the best way forward. Thanks for the suggestion.
It seems to me that this is resolved ?!
Yes, i think its solved. Sitting out players who are all in with their last chips dont stay in the game anymore,
The hand will be folded automatically now.
Good, this is partly … but ok 
Only time sitting out player wins is when he has big blind and every other player fold, but thats normal.Big Blind player is the last player in the hand.
No, this should have changed or changing!

Paul Gould (Official Rep) 12 days ago So, we’ve decided instead of imposing a maximum sit out time, to instead ensure that players sat out fold at first opportunity (even when other players check) so that they never win a hand.
oke, when the sitting out player has the bb and all others fold he dont win the hand, he only keeps the blinds. Better?
ok, thats good
btw, nono where r u ? quit!?
Started over in low stakes look 4 a big WWII plane.
sorry, I was not able to read
I agree with Happiness’s original comment. “Only time sitting out player wins is when he has big blind and every other player fold, but thats normal because big blind player is the last player in the hand.”
So he doesn’t even get an opportunity to fold his hand. Surely that’s the only way to follow the rules of poker correctly. If we modified the game to give back the small blind then it’s add to complexity and makes it harder for us to maintain the game.
I disagree. If a player is not at the table he can’t turn over his own cards. I ask – is it fair to the players at the table for the dealer to monitor and play an absent players hand?
When all players fold,there is no game, so the last player in the hand get the blinds. I dont see your problem.
We’re currently following the same approach as say, Poker Stars, who do a pretty good job of described it as follows:
"A tournament is not like a ring game, however. For their “buy-in”, they receive their starting stack of chips, which are not from their chip totals but are instead just scorekeepers for the tournament. Once the event begins, it must proceed until one person has won all the chips.
For the same reason that players cannot just choose to pick up their own chips and leave, we cannot arbitrarily remove the player and their chips from the event once it has begun. Every chip in a starting stack of a tournament must be at the final table in order for a game to be fair to every player.
It’s best to think of a player who is sitting out as simply folding every hand. This is a completely legal tactic, as it is up to any individual player to decide his own best strategy. There is no rule, for obvious reasons, against folding every hand. Therefore, what these players are doing is not against any rule, and no action will be taken against them.
For the same reasons, we cannot make changes to the system to discourage this activity. Once a player has paid their entry, they are entitled to play (or not play) every hand that their chips will buy them."
It’s much more important we now auto fold before the flop, as we didn’t do this before. This exception where the away player is the big blind and everyone folds before he/she gets a chance to, causes minimal disruption to the game and keeps the integrity of our system intact. We could do a whole of work changing it but I’d rather we spent the time on introducing for example new types of poker. I’m sure you would too.
Understood if all fold to the big blind the away player/BB wins. But if the away player/BB is just called and must show?
Additionally. Sitout player should not win a prize (ply. who is out there all the time)
