Poker rules online - Disconnections

If you are disconnected from the system during play, the following rules will normally apply:

  • If you are disconnected during play, the table is notified via the game History box. For information on leaving and returning to a game, see the section Leaving and Returning to a Game.

  • If you are disconnected during the play of a hand and have not placed a bet, your hand will automatically fold after ten seconds.

  • If you are disconnected during the play of a hand and have placed a bet, you have thirty seconds to reconnect. If you do not reconnect within a specified period of time (usually 30 seconds or one minute), you cannot rejoin the table, and are considered all-in.

  • There is a limit to the number of times that a Player can call all-in in a 24-hour period. When this limit is exceeded, the Player's hand folds and any money the Player has contributed to the pot is forfeited. Make sure that you are aware of your all-in status. When you have reached the all-in limit, you must request that the limit be reset. To request that the limit be reset, you will need to refer to the specific rules for the room in which you are playing.

Poker rules online - Playing at more than one table

You can normally play at more than one table simultaneously, again at the discretion of the House. The following rules apply:
• The House monitors Players who are playing at more than one table simultaneously. This is to ensure that multiple-table play is not causing slow play. If the House determines that slow play is a result of playing at multiple tables, the Player is forced to play at one table only.

• The Player may not allege distraction or confusion as an excuse for errors made when playing at more than one table simultaneously. Players are therefore urged to consider the risks involved in multiple-table play, as errors that occur are strictly the Player's responsibility.

Poker rules online - Individual play

Poker is a game where Players play for their own interest. Partnerships or any kind of co-operation between Players is not permitted.
