Time clocks

[bigmike667]

How many of you ever used or called a time clock before? I have noticed and especially on online play, there are quite a few people that like to take their time playing their hand. I personally don't like to wait 3 minutes on a single hand.

I've done a few times... and sometimes it just been activated because I had to run and do something. But most of the time I make the decision within in the first couple of seconds.

Where I play Friday nights though, some people will take forever to call or fold. Its a lot different when you play live, but sometimes its just unnecessary how long it takes people.

I know online that there are people that I have no idea what they do, but they take so long.
I have seen it once live, where someone actually called a time clock on someone because they were taking so long, and that was live.

Do you mean timebank for online play? I think they're very useful and use it myself whenever it's an option on the site.

Live, I've never called the clock on someone.

Yes, Time banks/ time clocks same thing. I see it used online a lot of times, I have no idea why the people online take so long, unless they are away doing something else.
But I only use it if someone is taking so long.
