Ready for a Real Table

Review the habits needed to join a game confidently.

Concept

You know enough to begin

Before joining a real table, feel comfortable with the tile set, standard winning shape, setup, turn flow, calls, call priority, the 3-fan minimum, payment basics, dealer movement, draws, and common mistakes.

You do not need to be an expert. You need enough confidence to follow the game, ask good questions, and avoid disruptive errors. Real play will make these ideas faster.
