      Rule #6 is INCORRECT. When balancing players the player who is next to be big blind is always selected, and moved to the worst available seat on the target table.

    • @Dcmazters
      @Dcmazters Рік тому

      As other players have suggested, rule #11 is incorrect, the flop action completes, then the river burn is placed face down and the river becomes the turn. The turn card is then shuffled into the stub, then once the turn action is complete it is turned face up as the river.

    Poker dealer here! TDA actually changed the rules regarding checking back the nuts; it’s no longer an automatic penalty. This insinuates that it’s usually collusion but occasionally may have strategic value, I.e., I wanted to know my opponents exact holdings so I just called his 3 bet with the nuts

      that's a really good point. small sample size so it shouldn't matter but its at least a legitimate reason. there's just so much nonsense these days with highly organized groups and outside collusion, its tough to allow rules that make that shit even easier.

    • @dylantheTD
      @dylantheTD Рік тому +1

      This interpretation is not accurate.
      Checking back the nuts is not allowed - it can be considered soft play.
      The rule change is that "it is not an automatic soft play violation". The reason this was added is because there is a prior rule which states "soft play WILL result in disqualification"
      The reason the new rule exists is simply so that the TD has discretion to give a warning or penalty other than disqualification, but the behaviour is still NOT allowed.

      @@dylantheTD That's interesting, soft play resulting in a DQ is not a rule I'm familiar with, but I understand the need to keep rules flexible enough to allow TDs to make the best decision given the circumstances.

    • @dylantheTD
      @dylantheTD Рік тому

      ​@@MoodyTheGoose The exact rule (TDA-2022) is "69: Ethical Play
      Poker is an individual game. Soft play will result in penalties, which may include chip forfeiture and disqualification. Chip dumping and other forms of collusion will result in disqualification"
      Additionally, in
      "71: Warnings, Penalties and Disqualification", extract from part B
      "...Penalties be given for soft play..."
      and
      "..Checking the exclusive nuts when last to act on the river is not an automatic soft play violation; TD's discretion applies based on the situation."
      There is nothing which states that checking the nuts on the river is explicitly against the rules, but obviously the reason it is mentioned is because it can clearly be intentionally protecting of the other player, a type of soft play. Importantly to understand the last part in full context is 71B - penalties be given. The reason that the last statement is needed is such that a TD can use discretion to explain why they need to bet or otherwise warn the player, rather that is simply be an automatic soft play violation. And as stated in rule 69, soft play will result in penalties which may include chip forfeiture and disqualification. Disqualification would be an extreme cash, but in both 69 and 71 the rule would be an immediate penalty.

  • @ongbonga9025
    @ongbonga9025 Рік тому +3

    On a table with rake, there is value in "only" calling the nuts in certain spots. For example, a raised pot where both players are deep, no significant action until the river, board is KJQ2T with a naked ace the nuts, first player bets, next player raises, then we see a 3bet. It's very obvious that both players have an ace, and that if both players are obliged to keep raising, then they will both lose money because of rake. By calling the nuts you're minimising the rake, it's a +ev play if you're 100% certain the other guy also has the nuts.

    For that last one, I’ve never seen a place that hangs on to leftover small denomination chips. I’ve seen two ways to handle the leftovers: 1) round up to the next denomination (whether you have 1,2,3 or 4 hundreds, you get a 500); or 2) a show down based on how many of the smaller denominations (ex 2 stacks of 4 left over hundreds and a stack of 2 total 1k or 2 500 chips .. the stacks of 4 are dealt 4 cards while the stack of 2 is dealt 2 cards .. the two highest cards gets the 500 chips).

    Need to clarify something. If the dealer exposes the next card with a player yet to act, that card does come back. But what happens next depends on whether it was the turn or river card. If it's the river card, the remaining deck (including The exposed card) is shuffled and and a river card is dealt. HOWEVER, if it's the turn card, first another card is burned and the "natural" river is dealt set aside face down. Then the deck is shuffled and a new turn card is dealt. If action proceeds to the river, the river card already dealt is flipped over. That way there's no change to what the river card would've been.

    Regards to purchasing chips from another player's chips.
    This happens often in my local cardroom. The dealer will call for chips so the exchange can happen at the table (common practice in UK casinos where floats are not present on the poker tables).
    Cash can be switched for chips between players, so long as the cash stays on the table, so the exchange between the house and player still occurs and no money is lost from the table. This allows the new player to immediately start without placing in notes to the pot.

      At our poker room, for cash games, you must do your first buy-in at the desk. If you need to reload or add on, you must give the cash to the dealer. At that point, if you're buying in for, let's say 200, and the dealer only has 25s in the tray (in this example, we'll say that they're waiting on a fill), you would give your 200 to the dealer, you can then ask another player for 200 in 5s, and that other player would receive the 200 in 25s from the tray.

    Did you mentioned the rule where, for example, player1 bets $10 in a 1/2 game. Then player2 goes all-in for $16,
    finally, player 3 CANNOT reopen the action by doing a Re-raise, it’s impossible to do a re-raise since player2 didn’t do a minimum-raise as he didn’t have enough chips.
    I believe the minimum raise that player2 would have to do for player 3 to be able to re-raise in this example is, the previous raise x 2 = $18
    Please correct me if I’m wrong since I’ve seen some people say the minimum raise would be $20, but I’ve seen others not include the big blind value, $2, in the total

      I think this is not quite correct. If you go all in for less than the minimum required raise, but raise 50% or more of the last raise, the action is still open. A 1/2 game where the first open is to $10 ($2 bb + $8 raise) and the next action is all in for $16 leaves the next player room to raise, because the $16 bet constitutes a $6 raise, which is 50% or more of last raise of $8. So long as the player who went all in over the $10 open was in for $14 ore more, the pot can be reraised. If they go in for $11-$13, then no more raises can happen.
      I might be wrong about 50% of more vs more than 50%. The actual numbers might be shifted by a dollar. $11-$14 = no more raising and $15-$17 = raising possible.

      Here's a helpful formula for caculating raise minimums in big-bet games:
      (Current bet x 2) - (previous bet) = minimum needed to re-open betting
      In your example, it's:
      ($10 x 2) - $2 = $18
      However, you have too many players in your scenario for this rule to matter yet. Only Player 1 will be affected by this rule.
      Payer 3 can do whatever he wants, because he has yet to be given a chance to act on his hand on the current betting round.
      If Player 2 is all-in for $16, then it is only the original raiser (Player 1, who raised to $10) who cannot re-open action.
      Hope that helps clear it up. 👍

    Just to be clear, if you see a marked card there is NO RULE that states you have to let everyone know. If you're playing with new inexperienced players or friends it's ok to let people know. If you're at a casino or home game you are perfectly within your rights to take advantage of this knowledge as long as you had nothing to do with the cards being marked. I have seen experienced rounders purposefully bring used cards from the casino. (For those that don't know these cards are cut or punctured with a machine and black spots are quite common on some or even all cards. ) Again this is still not cheating, just very very scummy.

      I believe #20 applies only if you choose to play the hand (in which case you go all-in pre-flop), as opposed to folding it (i.e., not playing that hand) and then waiting for the next one. Of course, the big blind will eventually come around to you, at which point you will be forced all-in.

      I have not seen this in ANY of the poker sites I've played at-and I've been on close to ten. You should only be forced all-in when you do not have enough chips to pay either the antes or blinds. This is most often strategically prevalent in tournaments, where you are close to the bubble or moving up a spot on the pay ladder, and folding is the correct play.

      He said "the next hand you play". The wording is a bit ambiguous, but most players consider "playing" a hand to mean putting chips in the pot, not just being dealt in.

    #11. The dealer should burn and put out the would be river as the turn and then put the exposed card in and reshuffle. Try to keep the hand as close to what it was going to be as possible.

      You gain information then though, if you accidentally turn the Queen of Hearts, but put out the river before reshuffling, everyone knows the river is not the Queen of Hearts.

    number 16 is completely wrong... throwing 1 chip without saying anything will mean that if the chip is at list twice as large as the last bet or blind, it is considered a raise... if the chip is smaller or the same as the last bet or blind then its considered a call... thats standard in every casino around the world...

    Poker dealer here! TDA actually changed the rules regarding checking back the nuts; it’s no longer an automatic penalty. This insinuates that it’s usually collusion but occasionally may have strategic value, I.e., I wanted to know my opponents exact holdings so I just called his 3 bet with the nuts

      @@jaypeters5224 This interpretation is not accurate.
      Checking back the nuts is not allowed - it can be considered soft play.
      The rule change is that "it is not an automatic soft play violation". The reason this is added, is there is a prior rule which states "soft play WILL result in disqualification"
      The reason the new rule exists is simply so that the TD has discretion to give a warning, but the behaviour is still not allowed.

      Despite their arrogant attitudes, the TDA is a not an authority.
      Their rules are not optimal - nor was there ever a time when they even came close.
      They're some of the most closed-minded and insecure fools I've ever dealt with...in poker, or otherwise.
