You may open an empty table and wait for other players to

at the time.
You can choose from several chat levels in the "Full

How do I know your games are fair?
If you haven't already read through our section on game
security, please take a few moments to do so. We have stringent
policies in place to ensure that the integrity of our games
is never compromised. Also, please remember that poker is
a game that you can both win and lose. We encourage you to
keep this in mind when you play at BetHoldem.
If, at any time, you have questions or concerns regarding
BetHoldem games, please contact our support team.
What happens if I am disconnected when I'm playing?
If you are disconnected, your hand will be protected by an
All-In, unless you fold. Please see below for the ways that
your hand can fold.
Administrators set a limit for the number of All-Ins in a
24-hour period to prevent the feature from being abused. The
All-In Counter is reset each day at midnight.
Your hand will be folded if the following occurs:
- You leave the room in the middle of the hand.
- You leave the game by closing it - i.e. by clicking
the "x" in the upper right hand corner of your
screen
- You click the fold button, either on purpose or by accident
- You "Time Out" - i.e. you do not respond
to your turn within 20 seconds
What is the rake?
The rake is the amount of money that BetHoldem takes for hosting
the games. This applies to games without an ante. The rake
equals 5 percent of the pot and is never more than $3.00.
For more information about the rake, please click
here.
How do you prevent collusion?
We take collusion very seriously at BetHoldem and have employed
sophisticated software to detect suspicious player activity.
Players who are found to engage in collusion will be immediately
and permanently suspended from BetHoldem and the Prima Poker
Network.

on our security measures.
I'm often disconnected from the game and/or my screen freezes. Why does this happen?
Disconnections usually occur as a result of a poor or inconsistent
connection to the Internet. The Internet often reroutes information
in times of heavy traffic causing delays. In an interactive
game, such as Poker, the system may interpret a delay as signifying
that a player has quit the game. In this instance, you will
be disconnected and you may receive an error message from
your computer. You will not always receive such a message
- sometimes it will simply appear that the game has
stopped.
I'm receiving error messages. What should I do?
Please contact a member of our Support Team and describe your problem in full detail.
