888PL leaflet
I picked one of these up from my venue last week. I would imagine these are mostly marketed towards the potential new player and therefore could be a little more informative with regard to the basics in the "how to play" section. Obviously we don't want to make a potential new player nervous and include every rule here (splashing chips, acting out of turn, rabbit hunting/digging through the muck, etc) as these are usually explained in time by the friendly locals
and the #1 objective is firstly to get them seated.... but while an explanation on a split pot is given, a few common terms are missing....there is no option/mention to check, also no posting of big blind, and also a few spelling errors (post/s, know/n, w/h/ere) and some strange terms ie, increasing your rating, the machine indicating the winning hand, the board players? I'm not trying to be negative here, just bringing attention to the few obvious errors with the view that they are corrected before the next round of printing/distribution.

I've played in the league for almost three years, and not once has said "machine" split a pot for me

Re: 888PL leaflet
preflop doesn't say anything about a big blind either
