Threatening / Berating: The Kindness Rule
We, as a league, cannot tolerate behavior at our games that would discourage other players from coming back, or cause our wonderful volunteer tournament directors any unnecessary stress or grief.
Is This a Call or a Raise?
A player raises. Another player announces “raise” (having not seen the first raise) and puts an incomplete raise in the pot. What is the ruling?
Misdeals
During the deal, when is an exposed card a misdeal?
Hint: Not always (and not only) when it is dealt to a player in one of the blinds.
Minimum Raise Amount
The minimum initial raise preflop is always a raise to twice the amount of the big blind. But do you know what the mimimum reraise is? Many players don’t. Hint: it isn’t “double the previous bet.” Surprised?
