Floor people are to consider fairness & the best interest of the game when making decisions. Unusual Circumstances can occasionally dictate that decisions in the interest of fairness take priority over technical rules. THE FLOOR PERSONÕS DECISION IS FINAL.

2. Breaking Tables

A. a.In flop games when balancing tables, player will be moved from the big blind to the worst position (which is never the small blind). The table from which a player is moved will be as specified by a predetermined procedure. Play will halt on any table that is three or more players short.
B. Players going from a broken table to fill in seats assume the rights and responsibilities of the position. They can get the big blind, the small blind, or the button. The only place they cannot get a hand is between the small blind and the button.

3. Penalties & Disqualifications

A Penalty MAY be invoked if a player exposes any card with action pending, throws a card off the table, violates the one-player-to-a-hand rule, or similar incidents take place. Penalties WILL be invoked in cases of soft play, abuse, or disruptive behavior. Penalties available to the TD include verbal warnings & Òmissed handÓ penalties. A missed hand penalty will be assessed as follows: The offender will miss one hand for every player (including the offender) who is at the table when the penalty is given, multiplied by the number of rounds specified in the penalty. Tournament staff can asses 1,2,3 or 4 round penalties. A player that is disqualified shall have his or her chips removed from play. Repeat infractions are subject to escalating penalties.

4. Player Breaks

A. Any published or printed Blind Structure for a specific tournament is subject to change at any time before and during the tournament based on how many people are playing in relationship to how many were expected. Blind Structure can also be changed to influence the tournament to end near a specific time to meet facility requirements.
