10. You are responsible for guarding your hand.

13. No digging in the muck - Mucked cards are final.
    Note: As the Poker League encourages learning of the game, if you are out of the hand, the mucked cards may be viewed with permission.  Ask first!

14. Active hands that are not mucked as shown at the end of betting always play, regardless of whether or not the player realises they have a winning hand no not.

15. Don't bet out of your turn - A raise out of turn is forced Check/Call or fold.

16. Don't pre-deal the community cards before betting sequences (It potentially allows a glimpse of cards before betting).

17. Initial dealing issues and pre-flop card exposures will result in a re-deal.

18. Dealing issues post-flop card exposures (Example: a flipped burn card) will result in the offending card being shuffled back into the deck the sequence.

19. Don't discuss issues or the game if you are not in the hand.
    Note: As the Poker League encourages learning of the game, if you are out of the hand, and would like to discuss the hand, ask for permission.  Ask first!
    Our group is very lenient and as long as the banter does not impact players still in the hand.
