I'm organising poker tournament (finally found some ppl interested in poker in croatia). Where can I find rules and guidelines for correct poker playing.
Online play is so much easier - cant do anything against rules.

Is this any good?

And, yeah....what does this mean:
If a live hand touches the muck, it will immediately be ruled dead

thx

Yea, homepokertourney is a great site.

And the muck thing. Let me over-explain it for you.

When people fold their cards, they go into a pile of folded cards called "The muck" If 1 player, even accidently, allows his cards to touch the muck pile they should be considered folded.
I don't know what they have to say
It makes no difference anyway.
Whatever it is...
I'm against it.

All titles must be presented in this fashion.

TLR is an unknown quantity at this point
 homepokertourney is a great site

One thing I would recommend to you from my past experience in home tourneys is define before the tourney a mechnism for 'conflict resolution'.
In the first three home tourneys my group ran there was always an open issue that was not covered by the tournament rules, and luckily we had a mechnism to resolve all such issues, so they did not turn into a big arguement
