Welcome to the Poker General Forum!

This is a brief summary of what should and shouldn't be posted here, so that we can hopefully keep having to move threads around to a minimum. New and old members alike should take note of this - there is still a lot of threads being found that need to be moved.

What should be posted here:

Topics with general poker content that aren't covered by any of the other forums. This may include, but is not restricted to...

Poker queries not related to strategy issues (such as issues with rules, questions regarding poker literature, and so on).

Topics regarding poker on TV.

General poker narratives.

Any other topic relating to poker, in general, that does not fall under the specifics of any of the other poker forums.

What should not be posted here:

Anything that is prohibited by the rules, such as spam.

Any poker industry news (post breaking news, etc. in the Poker News forum)

Any strategy posts or questions (post to the relevant Poker Strategy forum such as Cash Games, Tournament Poker, or Learning Poker - see those sections' descriptions before deciding where to post).

Any questions regarding specific poker sites or live poker rooms/casinos (post to the Poker Rooms, Live Poker and Online Poker forums).

Any posts about depositing or withdrawing funds on your poker account (post in the Poker Deposits & Withdrawals forum)

Any posts about poker tools software (post in the Poker Software & Tools forum)

Any hand histories for review (post to the Hand Analysis forums in either Cash Games or Tournament Poker).

Bad beat stories, brags, or challenges (use the Poker Goals Challenges and Wins, Bad Beats and Vents forums).

Anything with no poker content (use the relevant forum in the General Discussion section, which will usually be the Community Hangout)

Each section of the forum has a brief description detailing the types of topics that belong in those sections. A good rule of thumb is to take a moment and read them to determine where your topic belongs before posting.

We are glad you found the thread. One other place you can find even MORE information is in the Rules and FAQ tab, near the top of the page.

Also, if you are stuck with navigating the forum, take a look a the link in my signature...a ton of information for new members.

Without knowing which thread and posts you are referring to, I am thinking the posts may have been merged together? which is not unusual.

I read them through and was left scratching my head. Pretty much everything I can think of can be placed into those sub-forums. Do we still need General Poker area?

There are things that don't quite fit that people could post.

E.Rostowicz · Sep 4, 2025

Thanks for clarifying the posting rules! It really helps to see what belongs here and what should go to the other sections. The examples make it much easier to avoid mistakes – especially for new members like me. 👍
