Poker Tournament this Saturday 1:00
It’s that time again!!! As many of you know….the old table was purchased by J.G. and a new one is being built and its time to christen it right! As usual, RSVP as soon as you can!! Also, I'd like to get feedback on format and rules...any suggestions... be sure to let me know.
Official Rules:
The Game:
No Limit Texas Hold 'em
The Time:
1:00pm Saturday, June 25th
Buy In:
$50 +$5 (for beer, snacks, maybe a surprise appearance, etc) = $1500 in chips

Check and raise is allowed.
The minimum bet is equal to the size of the big blind.
The raise must always be at least the size of the previous bet orraise.
3 raise limit
Any player can bet all of their chips at anytime (ALL-IN).
When only two players are left sitting at the table, the BB is dealtto first, the button acts first before the flop, and the BB acts firstafter the flop.
Do not splash the pot. Stack your bets in front of you and push theminto the post after the betting round is complete. This will eliminatesome confusion that may occur with no limit betting.
Do not bet, check, call, fold, or raise out of turn.
Any vocalized intent is binding. Ex. If you declare that you are calling you cannot then raise. Or, if you say raise $20 and the minimum raise is $50 you will have been deemed to have meant raise $50.
The cards speak for themselves.
If there is any confusion on any rule the Tournament Director (me!) shall have final say unless I am the one involved. In which case, it will be put to the table for a determination.
