Hello,
Here are some EPT rules that I think might be different from the TDA general rules ... if no error from me.
Your opinion about it:
1- Flop: player A bet 1000 ... player B goes all-in at 1900 ... player C says "raise" and can minraise at 2000 ... !
2- Flop: player A bet 1000 ... player B is skipped ... player C raises out of turn at 3000 ... action is stopped and floor comes ... player B decide to call ... player C is obliged to call too ... !
3- Preflop heads-up: player A (SB & button) is skipped ... player B (BB) raise out of turn ... action is stopped and floor comes ... player A can accept the action of B and has 3 options ... ! ... or refuse it and choose to play first one of the 3 options but if he calls the BB, he obliges player B to stick to a check ... !!
4- If a player is not sitting while the very first card is dealt (to the UTG): his hand is immediatly dead ... !
5- In case of all the players checking at the river: the first to show his hand is the last player who bet or raised in the full hand (even preflop) ... !
6- If a card is flipped face up during the deal after touching a player's hand and event if it's obvious that the player really didn't moved at all and that the fault is on the dealer side: the player must keep his card and play with it. Card flipped or flashed while touched by the players (event accidentaly) must all be kept ... !
7- The warnings do not go automatically with a one hand penalty ... !
8- A player leaving the table or folding out of turn without chips involved in the pot (other than the ante) receive a 2 hands penalty ... !
9- A player leaving the table or folding out of turn with chips involved in the pot (other than the ante) receive a one round penalty ... !
10- The new hand begins exactly at the riffle wich follow the shuffle of the cards ... this is ok with TDA right?
11- A player leaving the table during the deal has his hand immediatly killed and receive a two hands penalty ... !
12- The players in late registering have their stack blinded off all the anteriors blinds in blocks of 20' 25' or 30' depending of the tournament ... !
13- The electronic devices must even not touch the table ... !
14- Full ring table ... 2 seats in middle position are free ... the other 8 seats occupied ... the actual BB is eliminated ... so 3 seats are free ... a player arrives to balance the tables ... he is placed at the ex-BB seat and will be the new BB ... so the BB do not change of seat ... the Button is directly on his right (ex-SB) ... there is no SB ... during the next hand the BB will advance, the newly arrived player will now be SB and the button will still stay at the same player (the original SB) ... ok with TDA?
15- During the deal the BB player receive only one card (or any other wrong deal) ... all the rest of the table bet and call and so on (huge substancial action) ... misdeal anyway ... (I didn't catch if they only do that to protect the BB player or for any player) ... !
16- When only 2 players left in a hand: a player who had been raised can ask the dealer to match the amounts and count for him the difference needed to call ... !
17- Foreign language is accepted between the hands ... !
18- In the tournaments with ante: during the final heads-up the ante are removed ... !
Please don't take it in the wrong way but: about all the answers that may AGREE with any of thoses 18 EPT rules, I will wait for a "certain number" of thoses opinions before even thinking about changing my own rules & habits based on the TDA!
