Local Poker House Rules

In addition to the above, we use these house rules:

• Always cut to the right.
• Do not show your hand to any other players, even if they have folded.
• Do not go through the MUCK.
• Burnt cards must be able to be accessed at all times during hand (kept separate from the MUCK).
• When dealing, keep the deck on the table at all times, not in your hand.
• When asked to change tables, only be seated by the Tournament Director (they will endeavour to seat you in the same position you came from).
• Always show courtesy and respect to other players.
