If you are really a true gambler or player you are expected to actually abide in these rules. Here are the basic poker rules: Proper Etiquette: * Never act out of turn intentionally. * Never intentionally splash chips into the pot. * Never agree to check a hand out when a third player is all-in. * Never read a hand for another player at the showdown before it has been placed face-up on the table. * Never tell anyone to turn a hand face-up at the showdown. * Never reveal the contents of a live hand in a multi-handed pot before the betting is complete. * Never stack chips in a manner that interferes with dealing or viewing cards. The Buy-in: * Normally, once you enter a game, you should have a full buy-in for that certain game. A full buy-in at limit poker is at least ten times the maximum bet for the game being played, unless otherwise assigned. * You are allowed to make only one short buy-in for a game. In general, adding to your stack is not considered a buy-in, and may be done in any quantity between hands nonetheless. * Basically, a player who is forced to transfer from a broken game or must-move game to a game of the same limit may continue to play the same amount of money, even if it is less than the minimum buy- in.See less »
