How it works:

3. Club Games allows players to invite people they know to join a private poker club (“Club”) using the Club Games feature on partypoker.com or its mobile application (“Website”).
4. Once a Club is created by a player the Club Owner and/or Admin Players of the Club (as defined below) may create a poker game that only those players in the Club (“Members”) may play in (“Club Game”).

Creating a Club:

5. In order to create or participate in a Club and/or Club Game a player must have an account on the Website.
6. Each player may create a maximum of 5 Clubs. The player who creates a Club will manage the Club (“Club Owner”) and will be required to create a unique Club name and password for the Club. The Club Owner may appoint other Members to be administrators of the Club (“Admin Player”).
7. Once created, a Club Owner and any Admin Player may invite people to the Club using the “Invite” tool. This will generate a Club ID number and password which the Club Owner and/or Admin Player can send to people they want to invite to the Club. The Club Owner and/or Admin Player is responsible for the content of any invite messages they may send.
8. The Club Owner and any Admin Player is able to remove Members from a Club at any time. When a Member is removed from a Club, they shall be removed from any Club Games but if they are already playing a Club Game, they shall be able to finish any current hands they are playing.

An Admin Player shall be able to choose the parameters of the Club Game, including but not limited to, the type of game, the number of players and minimum and maximum buy-in amounts. We may apply some restrictions on what parameters can be set, for example, the maximum amount players may be allowed to stake in the Club Game and we reserve the right to change these parameters at any time.
