Code of Conduct
The Code of Conduct is enforced by the game's organizing player, and their interpretation of the Code of Conduct is final. The Code of Conduct's purpose is to promote inclusivity and fairness within the game, and to ensure all participants are equally protected against infringement of the Code of Conduct. When you play poker here, you are expected to understand these rules and expect their enforcement by the game's organizing player.
1. Use of inappropriate language
If a player uses language deemed inappropriate by the Code of Conduct, they will be cashed out/refunded and permanently banned from the game. Language deemed inappropriate by the Code of Conduct includes the following:
- Racist language
- Sexist language
- Homophobic Language
- Language used to threaten, provoke, or instigate physical confrontation
2. Use of physical violence
If a player uses physical violence or threatens to do so, they will be cashed out/refunded and permanently banned from the game. This includes any and all players involved. If a player physically confronts you, you are not to reciprocate. You alert the game's organising player, and they will cash out/refund and ban the instigating player. Any reciprocating players will also be banned.
3. Abuse exclusive of inappropriate language or physical violence
If a player repeatedly abuses, berates or bullies a player after being asked to desist, they will be cashed out/refunded and ejected from that night's game. This includes ad hominem attacks on a player regarding their lack of skill, or abusing the dealer for giving you bad cards, or any part of the game that you cannot control. Those who find themselves unable to control themselves when they lose a hand with a high probability of success or find themselves consistently frustrated at the poker table should consult this following article on poker variance: https://www.thepokerbank.com/strategy/other/variance/ and pursue a basic understanding of mathematical probability.
4. Excessive drunkenness
If a player becomes excessively drunk to the extent that they are deemed unable to continue playing poker, they will be cash out/refunded and ejected from that night's game. If a player becomes excessively drunk to the extent that they are deemed unable to continue playing poker and break any other rules within the Code of Conduct, they will be cashed out/refunded and permanently banned from the game. Whether or not a player is excessively drunk is assessed by the game's organising player, though the game's organising player reserves the right to take up advisement should they have not been present at the player's table to observe.
5. Cheating
If a player is found to have cheated, they will be cashed out/refunded and permanently banned from the game.
6. RSVP System
The RSVP system is a fair and transparent method for the tournament director to ensure full capacity (32) of the evening and control any over-attendance. The desired outcome is a fully attended evening with maximised payouts, for the enjoyment of all. Due to restricted space and high participation, players must submit an RSVP (link below) to the tournament director for a seat to be allocated to them. Consistent misuse of the RSVP system, such as non-attendance, will put players on “The Naughty List” a 2nd, lower class tier of waiting list, only allocated a seat after ALL 32 players on the RSVP list have been given a seat and knock outs have commenced. There is no guarantee of playing offered to players registered on the Naughty List.
