Did I hit and run here?

[kingofclaycity]

In for 140 , out for 582 started at 9 pm left at 1 am, did I leave to early here? I doubled up early on , went on do almost quadruple up. Played a lot more orbits and decided to take my profits and leave , as I had a hour drive home, was this a hit and run?

It doesn't sound like it to me!

I dont know, what the norm or expectation is in your cash game, but personally I would not expect anyone to stay and play after 1am in the morning. I mean... it must allowed to go home and sleep, and you already played for 4 hours.

I kinda feel the same , only issue is the game was only five handed to begin with, so I felt kinda bad leaving the game short , but I came and did what I wanted to…. Did I mention that’s the only 140 I had at the time Lol.

A hit and run would be shoving, doubling up and leaving after.

Did you get a comment by one of the other players about it, or are these just some afterthoughts that come to mind?

Just thought afterward ,

Not even close to a hit and run. Great job and a good night I'd say. Congrats.

PS....If it's a home game(by the chips looks like it). I typically set a time and tell the host when I arrive when I plan to leave or around the time I plan to leave. That way it's clear well before hand when I'm leaving. 4 hours is plenty of time specially when it's a 1 hour drive home. Kinda sucks it left them short with 5 people thou. But it happens.....happened last Friday at my buddies home game. It wasn't hit and run either.

Cheers!!!

😎 no.... you just had a good night, that's allowed👍

 

[Mario7]

Well, it depends. The obvious answer is no, how could be leaving after 4 hours even considered "hit and run"?
However, if it was a home game and you all planned to play longer (or you just usually play longer) it could be considered a kind of hit and run.

 

[Station_Master]

Surely not, not even close. Why do you think it could be considered to be hit and run when you play 4 hours?

 

[Jillychemung]

Stop thinking about 'hit-n-run' altogether!!! You rack up when you want to for whatever reasons you want to! The only situation where you want to consider your timing to leave is when you are playing a home game and you want to ensure that you'll get an invite back.

it was also my first time playing there lmao

4 hours is far from hit and run...like Fallenglory says, a shove double up and leave after only a few hands would qualify as hit and run.

I get the same thought in a short handed game. When I'm ready to leave I'll just about always play one more time around from the button. In a situation like you had I hope, and hope, and hope that a new player joins us. Maybe I'll start announcing that one more time around like I always used to.

Leaving when you feel satisfied and especially when you have a long drive home is never too early. You don’t owe anyone at the table to stay — poker is an individual game. Taking your profit and leaving when it makes sense for you isn’t a hit and run, it’s just smart bankroll and life management
