Home Poker Etiquette and Procedure
1.Please keep “Rabbit Hunting” to a minimum as it slows the game down.
2.Do not act out of turn. Repeated infractions of this rule could result in a time penalty.
3.Showing cards or asking for advice from someone either in or out of the hand will not be permitted and that hand will be declared dead. If more than one player is left play will continue as normal. If only one player is left after such an infraction that player will be awarded the chips in the pot.
4.Show one show all. If you show one person at the table one or both of your cards you must show everyone at the table.
5.Please keep comments about possible hand combinations to yourself. This can negatively affect the game for people still involved in the hand.
6.The table captain and/or dealer should be the only ones arranging chips for any reason including a side pots.
7.Cards speak for themselves even if the dealer or player has miscalled the hand.
8.Both players must show their hands if one player is all-in and betting is complete. An all-in player will not have to show their hand if betting could continue between other players. Once all betting is complete the hand must be revealed.
9.No slow rolling! Hands must be turned over in a timely fashion and not one at a time.

We allow one card up during heads up play. It is allowed but only when the table agrees ahead of time.
I think I will incorporate this list into my rules PDF.
Thanks.

On your #8 item we have done this a little different. If a person moves all in and the person calls and goes to a showdown. The person who calls the all in bet can concede. Do you know if this is appropriate?

Interesting…
My understanding is that if a player goes all in and gets called…both players cards are turned over at that point. Then the rest of the cards are dealt. In this case neither player can concede.
…but if it’s your home game…well we all know that your group can come up with any rule and make it so.

I agree. Once a player all-in is called ….both hands up. Play it out.
Most home games I have played in are now like this. I think 2 years ago there was always some confusion. I see a lot of games taking on rules of the no-limit games often seen on tv (WSOP on espn for instance).

I would add to the list #10. Pay attention to the blind structure. It drives me bonkers when a player doesn't know the blinds structure.

Constantly reminding people what blind they should put up. I mean for a new player…ok…but for the regulars…arghh.

good point…I don’t need the pain of seeing that other card. Odds are odds…lets keep it at that. On the tele they do it for rating…IMHO.

We modified rule No. 1 in our games. If you want to see them you must pay to see them (usually pay what the blinds are). It then goes into the next pot. It has cut down on the “rabbit hunting” quite a bit.
