I think that is pretty much standard in all poker games. It's an anti collusion/ante spoiler rule.

The one that usually confuses me is the pot bet. It seems that subject to local rules where a pot bet can be the size of the pot as it stands, or the size of the pot if you had called.

never understood this one, went to the local casino, sat down wearing only my chaps, & they wouldn't deal me in, some BS about a dress code, like I'm going to wear a dress FFS...

The only two ppl that can talk about a hand during play are the two that are involved in the HU.

We had this exact convo at the casino last night.

How about the ruling that men can play in "women only" tournaments.
Otherwise they are guitly of sex descrimination.
They should at least make the men wear a dress if they want to play in women's tournyes.

the other thing if i had aces and i was involed in the play. and i told the person i had aces.. that is not allowed but if i did not have aces and told that i had aces while in play that is allwed but i guess the only way to find that out is if you call..

for expample look at what tj said in wsop 2003

Great find Adam.

The players took it in good humour, but I can only imagine how sick I would feel making that mistake.
