SURGE FAQS:
How do Surge blinds work?
When a new table is formed, players are seated randomly relative to each other. The Big Blind is designated based on the following order of priority:
- A new player who is yet to pay one.
- If no new player is at the table, the player who has gone the most hands without paying the Big Blind must pay it.
- If more than one player is in the same situation, the Big Blind is randomly assigned between them. This ensures that on average all players pay the Big Blind in equal measure.
- If more than one player is in the same situation, the Big Blind is randomly assigned between them. This ensures that on average all players pay the Big Blind in equal measure.
How many players are required to start a game?
As soon as three players are ready to play, it’s time to shuffle up and deal. In order to maximize the number of hands you can play, table size will gradually increase as the size of the player pool grows, to a maximum of six players per table. This keeps the game surging forward at full speed.
