Sitting Out in Ring Games: Rules and Limits
At ClubWPT Gold, we are committed to providing a dynamic and active gaming environment for all our players. Our sit-out policy is designed to ensure our Ring Game tables are consistently full of engaged players, creating a more enjoyable and competitive experience for everyone. However, we understand you may need to take a short break from time to time.
How to Sit Out
If you need to take a short break, you can easily sit out of a Ring Game.
Simply click the Menu button located in the top-left corner of your screen.
Next, click the Sit Out button.

Once you are ready to return to the game, you can click the Sit In button to resume play.
Sit-Out Time Limits
To keep the action flowing and to maintain the integrity of our games, we have a time limit for how long a player can sit out before their seat is automatically released.
You can sit out for up to 60 seconds at a time.
If you do not return to your seat within this timeframe, you will be automatically removed from the table to allow another player to take your spot.
Daily Sit-Out Limits
In addition to the time limit per session, we also have a limit on how many times a player can sit out in a single day.
Each player is limited to 3 sit-out sessions per day.
Once you have reached this limit, an alert will notify you that you can no longer use the sit-out feature for the remainder of the day.
These policies is designed to prevent player absenteeism and ensure that those who are seated at our tables are committed to playing. We hope that they create a more enjoyable and competitive environment for everyone, making the game more fun for our players. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact our Customer Support team.
