    Petition to have thechaoz timer limited

    Every hand when it gets near the final table he runs the time out completely, or folds right before time runs out. Literally, every tournament he is close to the money, regardless of chip stack. Then, magically, he plays quicker once the final table is decided.

    Can we get his timer reduced? I've seen others that have a very limited time, assuming they did the samething.

    He does this when there are 30 players left. He's a real pain in the ass. When I get on a tournament table with him and that Grivas Turd, I just start shoving so I can either build a stack or get the fukk out of there!

    It's pathetic. Still have 8 left over 90 minutes in because his table was playing a third of the hands as the other. Dude must really need some pizza.

    C'mon, SBR, save the other players' sanity and limit this stalling donk.

    He hurts everyone at that table. By playing less hands, they have less opportunity to stack up and knock out players.

    I wish they could install a 1 minute time clock for the entire tournament. Use it all up at once or a few seconds at a time. Can't stall every fukkin hand!

    Others? Who else have you seen besides Eberetta?

    Eberetta's full time bank should have been reinstated by now. He was merely helping a handicap person eat chips while he was playing poker. For this noble gesture, SBR goes ahead & cuts his time bank in half for years now.

    If that's not how it happened Eberetta, feel free to correct me.

    Then the donk rivers me to stay in, blinds are so obnoxiously high it's a shovefest.

    Lower his timer and watch his, all ready pathetic, game struggle. Guy will never cash if he cant stall to the final table.

    Yes, eberetta. I'm sure he wasn't as pathetic as thechaoz guy.

    There's a few guys that stall around the bubble to final table. It's annoying.

    I don't mind it that much if it's half the timer, or if they're extremely short stacked (like they're going to be forced all in the next time they hit the BB) and just trying to squeeze into 12th. This guy though was at around 4.4k, solidly in the middle of the pack, and he's running it down to where it says he didn't respond in time 70% of the time, then running it down to half a second before it says he didn't respond in time 25% of the time. The remaining 5% of the time he immediately, I'm talking about before the timer even loses a tick) shoves.

    It slowed up the entire tournament and turned the final table into even more of a shovefest than it normally is. Hell, 3 handed the blinds were at 1.5/3k. Then, of course, in the shovefest he rivers me to double up and ends up lucking into a win. Pathetic. It wouldn't have annoyed me as much if I didn't have someone to meet and I told them, worst case scenario, I should be done by 10:30. 10:30 rolls around and there's still 7 people left because of this donk.

    chaoz does not strike me as a staller, mainly because he has a clue how to play.

    I have played against him numerous times and have not noticed anything out of the ordinary but in fairness, I'm usually multi tasking and not paying complete attention to the table.

    My guess is that he is doing the same thing and it is not intentional but I could be wrong.

    i've commented on the Chaos's tendancy to sit out every other hand in cash games.... play a hand, time out the next, come back two later, time out again, miss a few more, repeat.......

    don't play with him much in trnies, but as it's a problem/event that happens in cash games, as well, I don't think he's trying to "wussywaves" it into the money......

    I think he's narcoleptic, falling asleep on and off during play....

    Jake he does it in every tournament. I've been unfortunate to be at his beginning table several times. He does it from the very start of the tournament. He's another one of those guys here that try to stall and fold their way into the money. It's pathetic and it shows a true lack of confidence in their games.

    There's no debate on if he does it or not, as he has admitted to doing so. It's just up to SBR to limit his timer.. Which I know isn't going to happen since it takes 3 weeks to get a response to anything for poker.

    not sure why this guy just posted this story now (says he just came across the hand), but I'll do the same as it's nice to see something occur in real poker (not the rigged rigged shithole like our little poker community gets to play in here at SBR), that is relevant to the very dispute goin' on in this particular thread......

    http://ftw.usatoday.com/2016/07/poke...rico-butteroni

    so, as this guy found it worthy of diggin' up a year, later, I'll throw it out for your entertainment, as well:

    I fail to see how this has absolutely anything with what's going on in this thread. Literally, zero.

    thechaoz runs the clock out until it says he didn't respond in time every hand once it gets to the final two tables. The only time he doesn't do this is when he goes all in, and he, almost always, instapushes before the timer even loses a tick in those situations. Thus proving he is strictly running the clock down to try and min cash and taking advantage of the software not having any type of hand for hand system in place.

    Is what he doing, technically, against the rules? No, but it's extremely bad form, and pretty pathetic to boot. eberreta had his timer limited for the samething (running it down constantly), except thechaoz does it every tournament he is in. It holds up play, drags the tournament out way too long, and makes it very unenjoyable for me, and I'm sure many others.

    All this from the guy who tries to act like he's better than others because he doesn't play a tournament every day, on the weekends, or on a holiday. When it's much more pathetic that you have to run the timer down just to try and squeak in to the final 12 of a daily freeroll that requires a 3x rollover.

    If you're going to constantly talk shit about bobbywaves jumping in the tournaments with less people (which, lately I've paid attention and it's amazing how quickly the 9pm goes from 18 in to 34 in once the clock hits 8:57-8:58) then there's no way you can be on thechoaz side on this. As he is directly affecting everyone in the tournament by playing like a scared little chode, while bobbywaves is not effecting anything by joining a smaller tournament.

    Since nothing will be done about it, the best solution is to register late in a tourney he's not in. Doesn't seem he plays every daily anyway. SBR is to blame for any bubble stalling, when hand to hand play can easily be implemented. Nobody wants to waste 40 minutes & get nothing in 13th place, so that's on SBR & nobody else. But any constant stalling is a different matter & totally unacceptable. You mentioned he shoves on some occasions before clock even starts, but that doesn't support the stalling to cash theory.

    Complainers about me are morons, whatever tourney I enter is solely my business. There's no way to know for sure which tourney will have fewest players, as I played the 11pm Wed night with 38. What's pathetic & annoying to me are those who constantly register & unregister right before a tourney starts, make up your mind jerkoffs.

    while bobbywaves is not effecting anything by joining a smaller tournament.
