Again with the recent changes!
On April 9th at 10:00 AM GMT BetMost Poker will change the "Anti-Cashing" mechanism on cash tables from 30 minutes to 120 minutes.
This mechanism prevents a player from returning to a specific cash table with a lesser amount of chips than he left it with for the specified time period. This change is done due to player complaints regarding "Hit & Run gameplay" at our cash tables, where players buy-in with the table minimum, play a small amount of hands, leave the table and return with the table minimum again.
- I challenge you do make comments about this topic!

Hit and run is a part of poker. If they are buying in for the min double up and dump chips and come back to the same table to try again then yes they should bring all the money back. Unfortunately, with the number of tables available one can still easily avoid the penalty of the longer time frame.

yeah, you can avoid the penalty but you can't keep eating from the same table.
Good points tho

it's also called southrunning, as i play mostly HU it's a problem, but hey i have no qualms about taking a players for cash and then leaving.. why sit there and let em keep min-buying?
southrunning is pretty common any limit you play, maybe BM will set some sort of industry standard by making the time longer to re-sit

It's a good thing but maybe bad for some. I multitable a lot in cash games so for me this new "Anti-Cashing" thing is not gonna hurt me as I play and only leave when I'm done.

I have no problem with this, since I am used with it on other sites. You bring in the money you left with if you want to continue playing with in minutes.... or what ever on the same table. One thing to prevent this could maybe log out and log in again. That is how it is working on other sites, I am playing on.
This thing can be bad for a short stacked or bankrolled player who just doubled up and wanted to split the money on two tables. Well, that is not how I do it... but yes, I am thinking on that part too. I guess this will be put on lower stakes table too. There we found a lot of players with just a few dollar in their bankroll.

Being the grinder type cash player this doesnt really affect me, U see the occasional hit and runner but they lose as often as they win (if not more) so I'm not overly concerned by them
