Minimum Buy-In |
The minimum buy-in at any Vegas Poker 24/7 table is ten times the amount of the lower betting limit in fixed games, and forty times the big blind in pot-limit and no-limit games. For example, the minimum buy-in for a $5/$10 fixed game is $50.00, and the minimum buy-in in $0.50/$1.00 Pot Limit game is $20.00. |
|
All In |
When a player puts the last of their chips into a pot, that player is said to be all-in. An all-in player is not eligible to win any money wagered above their final bet.If a player makes a wager and another player calls him using the last of his chips, any excess part of the bet is returned to the bettor, or it is used to form a side pot with another player or players who matched the amount bet. There is no limitation on the number of side pots. The all-in player is eligible to share in any of the pots that he contributed to, and therefore cannot be forced from the hand. |

Rat holing |
The player should meet one of the requirements listed below to re-enter the same table
- The buy in amount should be equal to the amount he left with/ or should be greater than he left with
- The player should bring all his real money in.
- The maximum amount required is not necessary for this case
- If the player has less amount of real money than he left with, he needs to bring all his real money in
- If he left the table with less amount than the "minimim amount required", he should bring " minimum amount required" .
- If not, wait 15 minutes to re-enter.

Disconnection and Time Limits |
Sometimes a player has enough chips to continue betting or calling but has been disconnected and unable to respond. In this case, the player is also deemed to be "all-in" for all the amount of chips he has bet on this particular hand. If this happens repeatedly, it probably means your Internet connection is poor. We therefore recommend that you stop playing, and wait until your Internet connection improves.
A player is allotted 25 seconds to act in fixed-limit games. A warning message is displayed in the chat box when there are 15 seconds left to act. If there was a disconnection and a player returned before the timeout, he or she receives a further 10 seconds to act.
If a player failed to act within the allotted time while being connected, the hand is folded by the system. |

Turbo Poker Tables |
Vegas Poker 24/7 also offers turbo fixed limit ring game tables. These tables have the word "turbo" in parentheses after the table name. Turbo tables are designed for players who enjoy a faster paced game. Turbo tables have the following features:
1) Players receive only 15 seconds to act, instead of 30.
2) Players are given only 1 second to decide to show or muck their cards, instead of 3 seconds.
3) The pot is pushed to the winner more quickly.
4) The showdown takes place more quickly, in 2 seconds instead of 5.
5) "auto-posting" of blinds is mandatory.
6) When players sit down, "Wait for Big Blind" will be automatically selected. Players can be dealt in immediately after sitting down if theywish by unchecking "Wait for Big Blind."
7) Player can choose to "Sit out next blind" and they will continue to be dealt in until the blinds reach them, at which time the "Sitting Out" option will be activated.
