Show up when you RSVP.
- House rule № 2
Respect the host and their home.
- House rule № 3
Be good at the table, whether you’re winning or losing.
- House rule № 4
Keep games and member information private.
- House rule № 5
Don’t be an asshole.

A private community, not an open group.
SSP isn’t a random WhatsApp poker group. Here’s what keeps it that way.
- Applications are reviewed individually.
- Exact home addresses are shared only with approved guests.
- Member conduct matters.
- Repeated no-shows or poor behaviour can lead to removal.
Poker brings people to the table. The community makes them come back.
