Poker has many unwritten rules of etiquette. Please read the following etiquette carefully to ensure the best possible game experience for all players. Things can get rowdy at Ignition Poker but stay cool by knowing your etiquette.
Choosing a Seat
We recommend that players new to online poker start out in lower-limit games to get used to the software and the game action. Click on an empty seat at a table to sit down.
The Buy-in
Players are not allowed to sit down at a table with a buy-in that is less than ten times the small bet limit. If a player chooses to sit at a $5 table, then the minimum buy-in would be $50. Many players choose to sit down with a larger buy-in, in case they get involved in a big pot and don’t want to run out of chips.
Timely and Courteous Play
Players are certainly allowed a moment to consider their actions but are requested to do so in a timely fashion. Players are asked to check the 'Sit Out Next Hand' box if they need time away from their computer. This speeds up gameplay and prevents excessive wait times. Players who are playing on multiple tables are asked to use the preselect boxes whenever possible. Players that intentionally slow down play will be warned and, if such behavior continues, may have their accounts suspended.
