HOUSE RULES
- In all disputes in which a ruling, interpretation, clarification
or intervention is required, all decisions made by RedlightPoker management
are final and binding.
- Management has the right to close any game at any time.
- Management has the right to remove a Player for a time period to
be determined by management for a violation of a House Rule.
- In the unlikely event of a Software error which subsequently rewards
a Pot to the wrong Player, RedlightPoker has the right to adjust Players'
account balances to correct any and all errors. RedlightPoker will
contact all affected Players and present a hand history and detailed
explanation of the error within 48 hours.
- If a Player notices that an error of any kind has occurred during
a game, the Player is obliged to contact our 24hr
Help Staff.
- In the unlikely event of a Server Crash that removes all Players
from the Table, the Hand in play will be considered dead (void) and
all Chips will be returned after an investigation has been conducted.
- In the unlikely event of an error, the hand will be dead. Please
refer to error under our RedlightPoker General House Policies.
- All players have the right to request a hand history in the event
of a dispute.
- Players may not act as a team. If Team Play (Collusion) is suspected,
RedlightPoker has the right to suspend suspected accounts while an
investigation is conducted. Players found to have been acting, or
reasonably suspected of acting as a team, will have their account
privileges indefinitely terminated at RedlightPoker.
- No Board Talk is allowed. Players may not Chat about a Hand while
it is in progress. Although some comments may be innocuous, the presumption
will be that any comments about the play of a Hand are in violation
of our rules, and the burden of proof will be on the violating Player
to convince us otherwise. To be safe, avoid making jokes about the
Hand you are holding or how you intend to play during a Hand.
- Players may not use Chat to offer advice to another Player during
a Hand, or urge a Player to take a particular course of action (e.g.,
it is a rule violation to use Chat to say “Call him, he's bluffing”).
- Players may not Chat about any Folded Cards they held during a Hand
in progress.
- Players may not Chat about any current Cards they are holding during
a Hand.
- Only the English language may be written using Chat.
- Foul, abusive or threatening language will not be tolerated at the
gaming Tables. Players may lose membership privileges for any repeat
occurrences.
- The game is played for Table Stakes and as such, a Player may not
be forced out of Hand for a lack of money. To complete the Hand, a
Player will be allowed to go All-In.
- If a Player is Disconnected during play for any reason, then he/she
will be considered All-In if such Player has any All-Ins remaining.
In the event that a Player does not have an All-In remaining, then
the Player will be Folded and lose the funds contributed to the Pot.
- The All-In Limit is two (2) per day. If a player uses their two
All-Ins in a day, he/she must send an email
to Customer Service, asking that his/her All-Ins be reset, and explain
the reason for needed additional All-Ins. Customers who abuse the
All-In policy are subject to having their accounts closed.
- A cap of three (3) Raises is allotted per Betting Round.
- If there are only two remaining Players, playing Heads-up, then
Raises are unlimited.
- Players are allowed to Check and Raise.
- The determination of which Player's hand will and must be shown
first during the Showdown will depend on which Player initiated the
action and/or which Player initiated the last Bet, Raise or Re-raise.
- Players who win a Non-called Pot are not obligated to show their
Cards.
- Players may not Fold a Checked Hand.
- Cards speak for themselves when determining the winner of a Pot.
The Universal Poker Hand Rankings apply, and a list of these rankings
can be found at the Ranking of Poker Hands
link.
- If two or more Players tie by holding equally-strong winning Five-card
Hands, the Pot will be split between the tying Players. If there is
an odd Chip, that Chip will be broken down to the smallest value Chips
in the game. If the amount to be split is still uneven, the Player
who was in earliest position gets the odd Chip in Flop games. In High-Low
games, the high Hand gets the odd Chip.
- The House shall collect a Rake not to exceed $3 per Pot, except
in games featuring Stakes of $1-$2 or lower, where the Maximum Rake
is $1. Please see Rake Schedule on
our Website.
- The Reserve-Seat and Sit-Out features are intended to allow a Player
to take a small break from the action without losing his/her Seat.
Players must return to the game within 3 Rounds. If a Player fails
to return to the game, then the Player will be picked up from the
Table.
- Short Buys are not permitted. The only exception to this rule is
if the Player has already bought into the game for the acceptable
minimum, and wants to add Chips from his/her account, but does not
have enough Chips in his/her account to reach the minimum. That Player
will be allowed to add as many Chips as he/she has left in his/her
account.
- Straddle Bets are not permitted.
- Membership to RedlightPoker can be revoked at anytime for any reason.
