House Rules Don't Make For a Happy Home

Level 1

There's been a lot of discussion over the tables about the unique 2-7 Triple Draw rules that are used here in the Crown Poker Room, which, according to the players, are vastly different than everywhere else in the world.

For starters, there is no burn card. That's caused the most ruckus, but perhaps the other rule is just as odd, but it's based on the cash game rules which also apply to all draw games, as per the legislation set down by the Victorian Commission for Gambling Regulation (VCGR), the governing body for all gambling activity throughout the state.

As opposed to the draw and action both starting with the small blind, the current rule states that while the draw starts with the small blind, the action begins with the player under the gun (first past the big blind).

Suffice it to say, the rule can't be changed now, but there are certainly more than a few players that are strongly voicing their opinions about it. We're sure that Crown will be making the appropriate changes in the future.
