Poker News and Events Posting Guidelines: What Should be Posted Here?

[Tammy]

Welcome to the Poker News Forum!

This section is for sharing and discussing news and headlines from the poker world. Below is a quick guide on what fits here and what doesn't.
Also, remember—each forum section has a short description under its name on the homepage to help you figure out where your post belongs.

---

What to post here:
News and updates from the poker world, including:

• Poker pros or well-known players making headlines
• Updates on poker laws or legislation
• Coverage of major poker events like WSOP, WPT, MSPT, GGPoker, Triton, partypokerLIVE, PokerStars Championship, SCOOP, and more

---

What not to post here:
These topics are better suited for other areas of the forum:

• Questions or discussions about poker sites or rooms
• Site-specific promos, tournaments, deposit/withdrawal issues, or support – use Poker Rooms or Poker Deposits & Withdrawals
• Brags, bad beats, or challenge threads – post in Brags, Beats and Challenges
• Twitch streams, live-streams, or channel links – post in Online Poker

---

A Few Extra Posting Tips:

Make your thread titles clear and specific
A good title helps people know what your post is about and increases the chances of responses. Instead of “Interesting article,” try something like “Phil Ivey Joins GGPoker – New Ambassador Deal.”

Don’t copy/paste full articles
Please avoid pasting entire articles or press releases. It’s best to:

• Quote a short snippet or highlight the key point
• Share your own summary, opinion, or question
• Link to the original article for full details

Posting full articles may violate copyright laws and will be removed. Repeated violations may lead to a warning or infraction.

This is a brief summary of what type of topics should be posted in this section. Keep in mind that all sections of the forum have a brief description on the home page under each forum heading with an outline of what should go in that section as well.

What you should post here

• News and headlines from the poker world
• Poker legislation news and changes
• PPA (Poker Players' Alliance) news and updates
• Major Poker Event News and Coverage (i.e. WSOP, WPT, MSPT, PokerStars Championship Events)

What you should NOT post here

• Questions about poker sites/poker rooms
• Poker site tournament or promo information or questions, including deposit and withdrawal or support questions. Those topics should go in Poker Rooms
• Bad Beats, rail requests, or challenges. Those should go in the Brags, Beats and Challenges forum
• Live-stream or twitch channel discussions or links. Post those topics in General Poker

Other Guidelines:

If you would like to post a news article for discussion, you MAY NOT copy and paste the entire article. You may quote a small blurb or main idea of the article, along with a conversation starter or question in your own words, as well as either a link to the original article. Copying and pasting entire articles or other literary works is a violation of copyright laws, and we will delete any posts doing this. Members who do this may receive a warning and infraction as well.

Before posting an article link from another website, we ask that you search CardsChat's News articles first. We may have already covered that topic, and would prefer a link to our own news in threads.

Well that is useful
