888poker will no longer allow table camping, MGW has learned.
The 888poker representative on the Two Plus Two Poker forum stated that the site will begin taking action against table camping:
“Continuing with our efforts to make 888poker the best poker room, we have taken steps to address table camping. Effective immediately, we will actively seek out table campers who abuse the sit out feature and address them on site. We reserve the right, at our discretion, to take action against players ‘sitting out’ for excessive periods of time. Repeated abusers of the ‘Sit out’ feature may be restricted from participating in our poker games either temporarily or indefinitely.”
The practice pertains to players who exploit the use of the “sit out” feature at cash game tables. Some players abuse the option to avoid paying some blinds and play an inordinate number of hands from the button.
888poker will now audit players that sit out for an exorbitant amount of time and address them on the site.
