Learn the rules

One published rule set per game, including the parts that decide money: draws, clocks and disconnects.

Clocks

Every match runs on a server clock. Running out of time loses.

Disconnects

If you drop, you have 60 seconds to come back before the match is forfeited.

Draws and faults

A draw refunds both stakes with no fee. If our site fails, the match is void and everyone is refunded.
