Black Chip Poker now defaults the “Auto-Post Blinds” option checked on all the tables. This means that players will Auto-Post the Blinds when it is their turn to post. All players are also set on default to “Wait for Big Blind” to post their blinds.

The “Wait for Big Blind” option will not post any blinds until it is your turn to post the Big Blind, before being dealt into the game. If you would like to get into the action sooner and Post, simply click the “Wait for Big Blind” button to turn it off.

Because we use high resolution graphics, you’ll need your computer to be set to “High Color (16 bit)” or higher.

You’ll need 30MB of space on your hard drive for the online Poker Client download and installation. We also recommend a minimum of 512 MB Ram and 1GHz CPU.

Before playing it is very important that you have a secure and continuous connection. Should interruptions in your service occur, Black Chip Poker will not stand accountable for funds lost due to bad internet connectivity.

On rare occasions due to a technical issue on our end, a hand will not be able to be completed.  In these instances, the hand will be declared a misdeal and ‘Misdeal’ will be displayed across the table.  The hand will then be redealt.

If you were disconnected while playing in a game and you reconnect within 35 seconds, you will be able to act on your hand. In fixed-limit cash games, if you do not re-connect before your time bank expires; your hand will be treated as if you went all in. However, to avoid abuse of this system, this courtesy is limited per player.

Extensive preventative precautions have been taken, however, 100% reliability remains impossible. In the unlikely event of a server crash, all player account information in a tournament reverts back to the end of the last completed hand. For Ring Games, all hands in progress will be cancelled and your balance will revert to the last completed hand.

In the event the software has a technical issue that is resolved in less than 2 hours, the tournament is resumed normally. If the software has a technical issue that lasts longer than 2 hours, the tournament will be cancelled.

The tournament team reserves the right to cancel the tournament before the maximum 2 hour allotted time if it is determined that it will be impossible to resolve the issue within the 2 hours. For more information about our Tournament Cancellation rules, click here.
