    Gratorama's 'Disconnection Policy' is as follows: Any card purchased by a player, (by pressing Play Now, or Play Again) but not used by such a player for any reason whatsoever, including technical failure, will be played automatically by the System on behalf of the player. The outcome of the play will be updated automatically into the player's balance. When logging in following the disconnection, the player will see the outcome of the relevant card by clicking on the "Games History" button.

      You can stop auto play at any point by pressing the “Stop” button. If pressed while a game is still playing, auto play will stop only after the game finishes.

For example, let’s say you check this option and set the right hand box to 10, and you choose to play 50 games starting with a balance of 100. After 2 games your balance reaches 110. At this point auto play will detect that your total winnings till this point during the entire auto play session is 10 and will stop playing.
