new rules proposal

New rules proposal

– get rid of the 25/50 blind and start at 50/100
– top ups are after 400/800 blinds
– 1 rebuy per person at anytime during the night except if there is three or less players left at the table. No rebuys at all when there is three or less players left.

Every player signs a copy of the printed rules and it gets posted on the wall with their signature before they start to play.

The rest of the existing rules remain in effect.

Friendly reminder

Poker night was started in the early 90’s by 10 founding members as a fun, social event. Since then new players have joined and improved the quality of the “game”.  We all want the same thing, a fair, competitive, quality game. However I think the “fun, social” part is declining. Some of the jokes and jabs are getting a little uncomfortable, I include myself. The same way we need structure with game rules, we also need structure with social rules.

*Be more respectful —-  (wives, kids, religion, race, colour,)  should be off limits.

*Try to communicate   —-  (In or Out, if you are going to be late, give a time)

*Maybe no electronics?  —- (creates distractions and slows play) hey you might even have talk to each other

*Try to help with the moving of chips and cards.

*Be nice to new players      (instead of taking offence to these suggestions maybe just agree)

Question to all?

So new addition Shaun asked if he could bring another player this week (catch is its a girl, she is a friend of his).
I said it’s fine by me and that I would ask if anyone has a problem with it.
I know we haven’t really opened that door before but as long as she can play and nobody else is uncomfortable I am ok with it. Speak now or she’ll be there Monday.
