WSOP : Two new rules introduced for its 41st edition
"Rule of Hellmuth" and "Rule of Paskin. These are the new rules which come into play in the events of the World Series of Poker (WSOP), starting from the 41st World Championship of Poker in Las Vegas. The provisions thereof have been inserted in the book of rules relating to the World Series of Poker and if these two names of players are there, because their owners are primarily inspirational. It refers to Phil Hellmuth and Barry Paskin. These additions include rules No. 14 and No. 37B. The first is to reduce the number of latecomers. It talk about the withdrawal of that player's chips who do not arrive before the completion of the 3rd level of play, his buy-in will be removed from the prize pool and he can claim but not beyond July the 17th. The disadvantage is that, by whim, players could enter and then withdraw from the game by being reimbursed.
The second educates players in civility and courtesy, especially hygiene. It allowed any player to appeal to the authorities of the tournament on hardship caused by lack of hygiene of another player on the same table with him. The question would then incur expulsion if the charge is true and if it does not take the action requested. Besides these two points, it should also be noted the revision of a rule on the limitation of the use of mobile phones during a poker game out in the context of the WSOP.
