I have a friend that is new to hosting and but not new to poker, and wants to host a cash game for the first time. He wants buy in once for himself at start, and if he loses his starting stack, watch everyone play for the rest of the night, be it hours at a time. I told him that that was poor etiquette, and that as the host, it is sort of expected you rebuy and remain playing at the table while your game goes on (unless you run really bad and go through a lot of rebuys). He didn't believe me, so I told him I would find out. Please give me your thoughts on this subject. Thanks!
