2010 WSOP Tournament Rules announced

Posted by: admin  //  Category: 2010 WSOP, 2010 WSOP Schedule, ACC, Articles, CA, CES, Casino, Entertainment, Events, Hotels, Inter, Jack Effel, Las Vegas, Las Vegas Events, News, Object, Online, Other, PLO, Poker, Poker News, Schedule of Events, Tournaments, Twitter, UNC, WSOP, WSOP Schedule, ads, article, b, biggest, book, bracelet, business, cards, d, dealer, dealers, director, drugs, eve, event, forum, game, gaming, gold, hot, hotel, information, ing, international, media, new, nfr, online gaming, person, phone, players, poker tournament, poker tournaments, president, race, regulations, rio all suite, rules, s, schedule, spa, tour, tournament, tournament rules, vegas, website, wedoitallvegas, world, world series of poker

Harrah’s Entertainment released the official rules for the 2010 World Series of Poker (WSOP) last week, and while no major changes were added to this year’s tournament series, the event’s organizers have included better definitions of some rules and incorporated revisions made by the Tournament Directors Association.

The penalty tracking system used in 2009 will be implemented in 2010. Penalties range from warnings to disqualification from the tournament and removal from the premises. Some of the infractions stated by the rules includes exposing hands, acting out of turn, removing chips from the table, abusive language, excessive celebration, soft play, throwing cards, dealer abuse, discussing the content of a hand and cell phone use. But even when the rules state that all cell phones must be turned off during play,  the WSOP regulations notes that “Players not involved in a hand (cards in muck) shall be permitted to text/email at the table, but shall not be permitted to text/email any other player at the table”. In addition, players who need to use their cell phones during the game must be at least one table length away from their seats.

Bad Hygiene has also been added as part of  the Player Conduct rules and will not be tolerated this year. According to rule 37, “Any individual who encounters behavior that is not civil or courteous — or is abusive in any way — is encouraged to immediately contact a Tournament official. This shall include, but is not limited to, any player whose personal hygiene has become disruptive to the other players seated at their table.”

The logo policy used last year will remains the same for the 2010 WSOP. Logos promoting drugs, handguns, lotteries, obscene material, pornography, libel, or advertises any online gaming site that conducts business with U.S. Residents will not be allowed at the tables (Only the .net versions).

“Poker has evolved exponentially the last decade, and with so many new players to the game, it’s important that we as tournament officials, dealers and players are all familiar with the rules. We believe that as the industry leader, it’s important for us at the WSOP to have the most comprehensive rules in the game today.” said Vice President of International Poker Operations and World Series of Poker Tournament Director Jack Effel.

The 2010 World Series of Poker will feature a total of 57 gold bracelets events taking place at the Rio All-Suite Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas from May 27-July 17, 2010.  Players are encouraged to download the PDF document from the official WSOP website and become familiar with the tournament’s rules prior to playing in any events.
