Poker Hand Rankings

NO SUIT IS HIGHER THAN ANOTHER SUIT.  Ties are broken by the next highest card if less than 5 cards are used to make the hand.  If still tied after all 5 cards are used, the tie will be split but if not an even amount the extra smallest chip still in play will go the last aggressive action (ie. Bet or Raise).

Fera Special Rules 

7-2 Rule – When a player is dealt 7-2 and WINS the hand, all players at the table shall pay the winning player the Small Blind, unless this would cause the player to bust out, then the player who would bust out doesn’t need to pay the bounty.

Bomb Pot – At the beginning of each blind level a bomb pot of the big blind will be played by all players, unless this would put a player all in, in this case the all in player will have the option to participate.  The bomb pot play will not move the dealer button and the dealer for the bomb pot hand will be either the dealer from the last dealer position or the next dealer position as decided between the two eligible dealers.  If not able to come to an agreement the dealer will be the last person to have dealt.

Running Multiple Plays – If all remaining players in the hand agree to run the board multiple times, this is acceptable only if a player in the hand is all in.

The World Series of Poker (WSOP) 2025 Tournament Rules (Section IV, VI and VIII – NO – LIMIT) will be used to decide issues not covered in this list of rules, this document supersedes WSOP 2025 tournament rules.  WSOP 2025 tournament rules, rule 64 b, c and f will not be enforced and rule 112 will be softened to allow food, beverages and electronic devices, however spilling on or staining the table or causing distraction or delay may result in those privileges being removed for that individual.  Additionally WSOP 2025 tournament rules, rule 64 will be modified to allow players to use the poker hand rankings found in this document or the web pages (not the entire websites) linked from this document only.

Anything not covered in this document or WSOP 2025 tournament rules will be decided by the house and the house will have final decision on any dispute that shall arise.
