Table Etiquette & House Rules

Beyond the official rules, most groups layer on their own house conventions for pace of play, courtesy, and settling disputes — worth agreeing on before you sit down.

For a full rundown of the social side of play — how to handle slow turns, phone use, and general table manners — see the dedicated Etiquette page.

Example

A simple house rule like "no discussing a hand mid-play" heads off a lot of friendly disagreements before they start.
