Cutting Cards: The "Dealer Button" is responsible for cutting the cards after the shuffle is complete, and before the cards are dealt.

Folding: Anytime a player places their cards or "mucks" their cards across the "Bet line" face down, IT IS A FOLD! If a player places their cards face up across the "Bet line", but does not announce a "Call", the players' hand is FOLDED.

Betting: Players must place a "Bet" or a "Raise" inside the "Bet line" IN ONE MOVE. Exception: Player may announce "raise", then match the original bet, then make an additional single move with the eventual raise.

PLAYERS WILL NOT COUNT CHIPS INSIDE THE BET LINE. IF PLAYER DOES, THEN THE ACTION WILL FORCE AN AUTOMATIC CALL. This is called a string raise and is not allowed.
