F-Bombs allowed at the World Series of Poker!
F-Bombs are allowed at the World Series of Poker!!! Well, so long as they are not directed at anyone.
The PokerNews.com gang have news regarding the new rules for the 2007 World Series of Poker, and among the most interesting rules update is this:
Any player who directs any profane and/or abusive language at another player, dealer or tournament staff member or who makes any profane and/or abusive comments about another player, dealer or tournament staff member will be penalized in accordance with Rules No. 22 and/or 46. In particular, the use of the so-called "f-bomb" and "c-bomb" as well as derivatives of those and similarly offensive terms, will subject the offending player to penalties if they are directed at or refer to another player, dealer, staff member, patron or official of Harrah's or the WSOP. In Harrah's sole and absolute discretion, it may impose at any time a zero-tolerance policy for profane language whether directed at another person or not.
Wow.. nice. We do enjoy some colorful language in our poker games. I wonder how many "derivative" words we could come up with...
