Poker rules

Are there any rules, particularly in live poker, that you disagree with?

Are there any rules you think should be added?

The 72 game should be mandatory.

The dealer should be allowed to tell you what's in the pot.

They have this at Aspers in Stratford.

I think it's daft that you're not allowed to be honest about your hand, while in play.

Give suspected people a breathalyser. Nothing worse than sitting next to a drunk stinking of stale beer.

Then that would mean the dealer would have to keep a count of whats going in the middle? Or do you mean he/she should count the pot upon request?

Players responsibility on the first count. Potentially very time consuming on the second count.

If you were to request that the dealers have an abacus on hand to pass lazy players, then I'd be inclined to agree with you.
