Timing Out
If it is a players turn to act, they have 60 seconds to place their bet
When a player has 10 seconds left to place their bet, they will hear an audio cue and receive a warning message
If 60 seconds pass without the player placing their bet, they will automatically fold the hand and be charged "1 Timeout"
If a player has 5 Timeouts during a Poker Match, they will automatically be removed from the game (as if they had chosen to Leave Game)
If a Server Reboot occurs while a match is underway, for the next 10 minutes after the server comes up players will have unlimited amounts of time to place their bets (i.e. wont automatically fold after 60 seconds)

When a player leaves the game or the match completes, if a player has more gold than their Buy In, 10% of their winnings (amount above the Buy In) will be taken as part of the house's cut, known as the Rake
