Read the rules before posting

:siren: Note: These rules are going to change as the new mod team settles in. Right now we are basically carrying over the old rules thread with a few tweaks. Stay tuned and pay attention for updates :siren:

Last Updated: December 18, 2008 1/10/2021 holy poo poo I think this is a record for longest time between rules thread updates.

If you have a gambling problem, think you have a gambling problem or need any kind of advice on anything related to this, you can contact an a mod, an admin, or check our the problem gambling resources thread

PITR Rules

Standard forum rules apply here.

This place is now about gambling in general. We hope it retains it's old PITR flavor and has lots of good poker info, but expect to see people talking about sports gambling, table games, placing weird bets on US politics via English bookies, etc.

Bad Beats, Brags and (jokingly) whining about poker rooms being rigged, complaining about downswings etc go in the Brags, Beats & Variance Megathread.

If you have a question and want to start a thread, read this FAQ first, as it may already be answered. Any questions about books, can go in their own book thread.

If the following rules are broken, the thread will be gassed and you may be probated:

The Golden Rule
:siren:DO NOT EXCHANGE MONEY BETWEEN GOONS ON THE SOMETHING AWFUL DOT COM DOMAIN:siren: . Talk about gambling all you want, but don't actually do it here. There is an important legal distinction between a gambling website and a website where people discuss gambling, and it's very important that we are the latter. No staking other goons either.

Paypal/site -> site transfers are not permitted. First, it is against Paypals terms and conditions and can get both your accounts closed, and second there is too much scam potential. Do not start a thread asking for any kind of financial transfer. NOR PRIVATE MESSAGE ANYONE. If you have questions, PM or IM a mod.

If someone contacts you privately, over PM or IM, in regard to wanting to do a transfer, PM a mod.

No attempts at pushing your affiliate links are allowed. This includes "Sign up at XXX and I'll give you $50" threads. This also includes threads hooking people up with rakeback for various sites(including Party Poker).

No advertisements of rakeback sites are allowed. By this, I generally mean replying to a post and saying "sign up for rakeback here". It doesn't matter if you're just trying to be helpful, this is something that if allowed would get abused very quickly.

No referral chains are allowed. If you wish to promote a site or its bonus then feel free to do so, but don't say "please mention XXX when signing up".

Poker is "rigged", "not random" threads. A subject that has been beaten to death, with lots of evidence proving that it is not "rigged", and no evidence that it is other than a lame bad beat story. If you have some reasonable evidence in regard to it then feel free to post it...however if you start a thread, and the basis of it is "[poker site] is rigged", you will get probated. Don't poo poo up a poker is "rigged" thread either. We get it, you have some new and innovative way to say "LOL RIGGED". Just leave the thread alone and it will be gassed promptly.

No asking/begging for money or related goods.

No "please buy a % of me in a tournament" threads.

When posting any hands to the forums, it's recommend you use http://www.pokerhand.org/
