General Rules

There are 5 betting squares at each player position: Ante, 2 Card, Flop, Turn and River. Each betting square has a multiple of the Ante bet posted below the betting area title: 1x, 2x, 3x, 4x and 5x.

Any player wishing to be a part of the hand must place an "Ante" bet. The size of the Ante will be determined by the table limit. There will be no range of betting as in the typical Hold'em game. The condition of the game will be posted as $1, $2, $3 est.

A player must have a full bet in order to go to the next betting level. They will be in the final decision on the hand based on the level they went all in on. The Dealer will place a "No Action" button 1 level above the limit the player went all in on (an example would be when a player goes all in on the 2 card bet, the Dealer places the "No Action" button on the flop betting square).

Side pots will not be separated out as all the wagers stay on the betting squares until the end of the hand. The dealer awards the winning hands by collecting the bets from the betting squares and passing them to the appropriate winners.

A player that is not all in and chooses not to post the required cheques at any level, folds his hand and is out of action for that round. That player's cheques will remain on the betting squares until the end of the hand.

The house will set the minimum buy-ins required at the different game levels.

The casino will establish the procedures for shuffling.

The layout will have a betting commitment line around the table. Once a player crosses this line with cheques, the bet must be finished. This eliminates shot taking.

The dealer button will move in a clock-wise direction as in Hold'em. Collection will come off the Ante bets starting at the right of the Dealer button based on what the casino charges to play the hand.

Action starts with the player at the right of the Dealer button (dealer's right). The Dealer must control the betting sequence and allow all players the right to bet in turn. Any player who continues to act out of turn will be asked to leave the game.

If the casino wishes to offer "Kill" play, the fixed betting limits will be doubled.

Management decisions are final!

The casino has the right to change procedures if they wish to adjust to their players needs. The fixed betting cycle is proprietary for Vegas Hold'em. If the casino wishes to increase the multiples, written approval from the Lessee will be required. The maximum investment for a player per hand will be 15x the Ante. In a standard 2-4 Hold'em game the player could invest as much as 30x the table minimum.
