No discussing an active hand (if you are not in the hand).
This gives information to active players and can influence action. If a hand is currently active and you’ve already folded your hand OR you are a table spectator:

• Do not show or verbalize your folded cards to active players

• Do not react to the cards on the board

• Do not discuss possible hands or speculate active players’ hands

• Do not influence action or bet sizing

Do not hide your hole cards.
Do not cover your hole cards with your chip stack, arms, drinks, food, phone, etc. Additionally, do not hold your cards off or under the table. This is important for all players to see who is in the current hand, and prevents speculation of angle shooting or cheating.

Auto-mucking will be enforced based on player presence.
If a player has left the room and the action is on that player, their cards will be automatically folded. Table may use discretion if the player is within earshot and can act verbally.

No muck diving.
Players may not retrieve their folded cards once they've been added to the discard pile.

Keep your chips clearly visible on the table at all times.
Preventing your opponents from seeing all of your chips is deceptive. Therefore:

• Do not keep chips in your seat, lap, pocket, or anywhere else off the table except when moving to another table.

• Do not hide your larger value chips behind or underneath your smaller value chips. Place larger denominations at the front or on top of your chip stack.

No string betting.
Players may not make a single bet in multiple actions. Example: moving 500 chips forward, then reaching for more chips and adding another 500 to your bet. Bets or raises must either be a single verbalized amount, or a non-verbal singular motion. If a player is caught string betting, only the initial motion or amount may be played.

A verbal bet is binding.
Example: Verbalizing “I bet 1000” while only moving 500 chips forward. You are bound to a bet of 1000, even if you meant to say 500.

Acting with a single chip is a call.
Moving a single chip forward, regardless of its domination, without verbalizing “call” or “raise” is always just a call. If you mean to raise, you must verbalize “raise” or use more than one chip.

Calling the Clock. NEW
Any player may call "clock" on an opposing player at the same table if the opposing player is taking an unreasonably long time to act (e.g., > 2 minutes). Once a clock has been called, the current dealer should initiate a 30 second timer (either verbally or by device). If the acting player is the dealer, any player other than the clock caller may initiate a timer. During heads-up play, any non-player may initiate the timer. If the acting player fails to act before the timer expires their hand is considered dead.
