The House Rules

The players who enjoy this genre longest all run the same four quiet rules. Every guide on this site assumes them, so here they are in one place.

The Four Rules

• Money is decided before the lobby opens. Fix the session amount first — never inside the app.
• Sessions get edges. Short rounds deserve short sessions; set a timer and honour it.
• Bonuses are dessert. Extra enjoyment, never projected income.
• A loss ends the session. Chasing is the one move that always costs more than it returns.

The Honest Check-In

If sessions start consuming money you did not plan to spend, time you did not plan to give, or honesty with the people around you — stop entirely and talk to someone you trust. No calendar drop outranks that.
