About TDA Guide

TDA Guide is an independent, mobile-first way to consult Poker TDA tournament rules quickly and clearly.

What is Poker TDA?

The Poker Tournament Directors Association is a voluntary poker-industry association founded in 2001. Its mission is to increase worldwide uniformity in poker tournament rules. Poker TDA publishes the rules, Recommended Procedures and Illustration Addendum used as the source for this guide.

What TDA Guide does

TDA Guide turns those published documents into a fast consultation experience: direct rule URLs, typo-tolerant search, Hold’em focus, procedures, addendum material and a glossary. The official wording remains separate from editorial summaries, navigation and search tools. TDA Guide does not silently translate or correct source text.

Sources, updates and independence

Every available language is tied to a published source and carries its own credits. Redline highlights appear only when they are present in a verified document for that language and edition. TDA Guide is not affiliated with or endorsed by Poker TDA; if this guide differs from the original publication, the original source prevails.

Designed for the table

The interface is intentionally compact and responsive so players, dealers and tournament staff can move from a question to the complete rule with as little friction as possible. No TDA Guide account is required to read the rules.
