Poker Online – Useful Online Etiquettes for Players

poker online

Poker online is a card game in which players bet into a communal pot during the course of a hand, and in which the player holding the best hand at the end of the betting wins the pot or, if only one player remains, he wins by default. Cards are always dealt in a clockwise manner starting with the player to the left of the dealer.

After the initial cards are dealt, there is a round of betting followed by more cards and another betting round. This continues until the hand is completed. The number of cards dealt and the number of betting rounds depends on the variation of online poker being played.

The betting action also goes clockwise and depending on the game may start with the highest card showing, the lowest card showing, immediately to the dealers’ left or with the last person to bet or raise in the previous round.

Let alone these playing techniques, in our today’s post, we will talk about a few simple yet unique etiquette. These etiquette are used by the players when playing online.

Choose a nickname/user name that is not offensive.

Chat language

Never make the use of offensive language when using chat features.

Treat other online poker real money players the way you wish to be treated.

Do not discuss a hand

Use a fold button to leave the table

Respect opponents’ wishes

When watching a game, please respect the player’s wishes if they want you to quit chatting.

Patience is virtue

If you wish to chat with a player involved in the pot, wait until the pot is over.

Apt use of All in
