Poker Rules

Get a handle on poker rules at CasinoClub Poker!

Entering a poker game:

To enter a poker game, click on the appropriate button in the lobby.

Selecting a table:

After you have selected which game you would like to play, simply highlight the table selection and click "Go to table.” You are automatically taken to the game table.

Choosing a seat:

Once you arrive at the table, you must choose your seat. Simply click "Join" and you will be seated. You will then be asked how many chips you'd like to buy into the table. The minimum amount will be posted and you have the choice to take all or only a portion of your bankroll as long as it meets the minimum amount.

Choosing a language:

Cash games can be played at tables with different languages. The table language is shown with a flag next to the table entry in the list of tables. The list can be filtered to select a specific language by clicking on the corresponding flag.

Betting:

In Fixed-limit games, the possible betting amount(s) is shown on the buttons when you are seated at the table. Simply click on the appropriate button to make a bet.
In pot limit and no limit games, the betting amount may vary. Use the slide bar to select the amount you would like to bet or type the amount in the text box. You can also click on the (-) and (+) buttons to change the amount.

The pot

The amount of money in the pot (and side pots) is clearly stated on the game table.

Table limits:

When you move the mouse over the table limit sign, a pop-up box displays the table limits.

All-in:

If a player runs out of chips during a hand and more than one other player is still in the hand, the amount of chips that the All-in player matches are placed in one pot and all other betting is placed in a separate side pot. If the winning hand is not the All-in player that player receives all the chips. If the All-in player wins the hand he/she receives the pot and the side pot goes to the player with the next best hand.

Play at multiple tables:

A player can play at as many tables at the same time as he likes. Each table is displayed in its own window, and required actions are indicated in the table display in the lobby and at the tables.

Seat change:

We are sorry, but it is not possible to request a seat change.

Exit game:

When you decide you wish to leave the table, just click on the "Leave game" button. If a hand in which you are playing is currently in progress, we suggest you click "Sit out" to allow you to leave the table when the hand is complete. Of course, if you fold your hand, you may leave the game at that time as well.
