Acting out of turn.

[Des]

i do use this some time to c a cheap card. but i play 90% of the time, like i am playing with my own money and the rules in NPL allow me to play out of turn to scare people.

any ways in saying this i have stoped this as i have found people don't like this and it is not the correct thing to do. i wanna play by the rules to make my self the best player i can be.

LOL you mean you angle shoot 90% of the time!! You do it heaps.

What Des is trying to say is that if he is in the hand, fold.

LOL
OMG, was that Luke admitting to angle shooting?
Luke I'm sorry but your banned for six months.
Just kidding but we will have a chat about this.
I need the posters here to understand something. This is the end of the second season, pub poker is very young and new over here. And so are the MAJORITY of our players. The rules we have enforced over here for the last two seasons are to educate new players as quickly as possible. We adhere to as much of the TDA rulebook as we possibly can but there are some areas that would be unfair to any novice players if they either: made an honest mistake, were unsure of the protocols or were being taking advantage of by a veteran player.
Rules will probably change in season 4 completely with a complete roll out of new structures, procedures and rulebook.
In the meantime Season 3 will see the implementation of new rules and changing some of the old ones. Again this will take time as the player base have adapted to and adopted the SA NPL way of "doing things"

So has this been inplemented now, so that raises out of turn are binding??

Section 3, iv) 7 - . Deliberately acting out of turn will not be tolerated. A player who checks out of turn may not bet or raise on the next turn to act. A player who has called out of turn may not change his wager to a raise on the next turn to act. An action or verbal declaration out of turn is binding unless the action to that player is subsequently changed by a bet or raise. If there is an intervening call, an action may be ruled binding.
Again, I understand that mistakes happen, but I was told last night by the TD that the player MUST check, and that the rule only applies in cash games. The bloke who acted out of turn would've won the pot with the raise, but lost after runner-runner... It was a genuine mistake that he raised out of turn, so he should've been allowed to play it.

If you enforce players raising out of turn to play their chips, then they will stop doing it when they get called by calling stations and lose.

Sorry for jumping on this, but it is a bug-bear of mine that players aren't held responsible... and people learn from their mistakes.
