CHEATERS BEWARE |
||||
 |
||||
|
If You Are Caught Cheating! You Will Be Barred From This And Every Future Missouri River Poker Game Ever Played |
||||
|
What Is Cheating? |
||||
|
Marking Cards |
||||
|
Marking a card in any fashion so that one or more players can identify that card is cheating! |
||||
|
Importing Chips |
||||
|
Bringing a chip into the game that was not issued at the begining of the game is prohibited. |
||||
|
Mechanics |
||||
|
Manipulating the deck in any fashion that gives the dealer or any player an unfair advantage is cheating. Dealing off the bottom, pre-dealing the board cards, or any other forms of stacking, previewing, or any “ slight of hand” issues. |
||||
|
Collusion |
||||
|
Dumping Chips |
||||
|
Deliberately losing to a partner (perhaps someone you are backing financially or whom you have traded a percentage stake). |
||||
|
Hand-Mucking |
||||
|
Switching or altering hands. Two people sitting next to each other might try to switch hands or alter them in some way. |
||||
|
Hot Seat |
||||
|
A new player is invited to a game, only to play against a team of players all secretly working together. |
||||
|
Signaling |
||||
|
Trading information between partners. Signals can take many forms, from the placement of the chips on the cards, to coughing, to Morse code tappings on the table. The key ingredient in all signaling systems is the ability to be repeated without being noticed. In a game where people (hopefully) are always watching each other, this can prove problematic. When a cheater is signaling the value of his hand to his partner(s), he is also signaling the value of his hand to everybody else at the table. |
||||
|
Soft Play |
||||
|
Failing to bet or raise in a situation that would normally merit it because of your opponent. In home poker games it is common to be playing against someone you know well but the best advice is to leave friendship outside the door, especially in tournament poker. Soft playing a friend is cheating all of the other players at the game who would prefer to see you bust out your friend, getting them closer to the prize money. |
||||
|
Whipsawing |
||||
|
Partners raise and reraise each other to trap players in between. |
