House Rules

What are the club rules? â–¼
Simple: No bum hunting (sitting out to avoid strong players), no collusion, no multi-accounting, respect other players, honor your debts, and English only at tables. We're a small club building fair action for everyone.
What is bum hunting? â–¼
Bum hunting is sitting out or leaving when stronger players join, and only playing against weaker players. This kills action and ruins games. If you're at the table, you play - you don't get to cherry-pick opponents. Violations result in warnings and potential removal.
What happens if I break the rules? â–¼
Depends on severity. First offense for bum hunting is a warning. Repeat offenders face chip confiscation or club removal. Collusion and cheating are instant bans. We track patterns and take fair play seriously.
Why is there an English-only rule? â–¼
Table chat must be in English so all players can follow the conversation. Non-English chat raises collusion concerns and excludes others. First offense is a 30-day chat ban, second is permanent.
