Where age limits apply, valid proof of identity may be requested by staff at any time. Guests who are unable to provide acceptable identification when requested may be refused entry or asked to leave restricted areas.

3.2 Responsible conduct

Guests must behave respectfully towards staff and other guests at all times. This includes maintaining appropriate table etiquette at poker tables, following guidance from dealers and floor staff, and complying with any instructions relating to safety, seating, and tournament procedures.

Guests are responsible for ensuring that their participation in offline poker, Texas Hold'em tournaments, poker nights, and any high roller-style card room sessions complies with any legal requirements that apply to them personally.

3.4 No online participation

Riverand Marble operates solely as a physical restaurant with poker. All poker activities are conducted in-venue at live poker tables. The venue does not offer online poker, remote play, or any form of digital gaming platform. Any use of personal devices during play is subject to venue rules and must not interfere with table procedures, dealer instructions, or the comfort of other poker players.

Guests may book restaurant tables in advance through the venue's booking channels or by contacting the team via the Contact page. When you make a booking, you confirm that all details provided are accurate and that you are authorised to act on behalf of your group. The venue may apply time limits to table sittings, particularly during peak periods.

4.2 Poker table reservations

Subject to availability and venue policy, guests may be able to request seating at specific poker tables or tournament tables. Seating is ultimately at the discretion of the floor staff, who may adjust table assignments to maintain fair and orderly live poker experiences, including table balances and table changes.

4.3 Texas Hold'em tournament registration

To join Texas Hold'em tournaments or other buy-in poker events, guests may be required to register in advance or on the day of the event.

5.1 General behaviour expectations

Riverand Marble seeks to maintain a welcoming, premium environment that combines restaurant hospitality with a refined poker card room.

Aggressive, abusive, or intimidating behaviour is not tolerated.

5.2 Poker table etiquette

Guests participating in live poker experiences, including poker nights and Texas Hold'em tournaments, are expected to follow standard table etiquette. This may include acting in turn, protecting your cards and chips, avoiding excessive distraction at the table, and following any instructions relating to chip management, seating procedures, breaks, and final-table conduct. Dealers and floor staff have the authority to clarify house rules and enforce decisions in the interests of fair play and guest comfort.

5.3 Responsible play

Riverand Marble supports responsible-play principles and encourages guests to approach offline poker as a social and recreational activity. Guests are responsible for managing their own level of participation and for taking breaks where needed. If you feel that participation in poker may be negatively affecting you, you are encouraged to speak with a member of staff or seek independent advice from relevant Australian support services.

5.4 Compliance with staff directions

Staff may issue directions relating to seating, tournament tables, chip stacks, table changes, or changes to buy-in poker events to ensure that games run fairly and safely. Guests must comply with these directions. Failure to do so may result in removal from a particular poker night, tournament, or, where necessary, from the venue.

6.1 Collection of personal information

When you make a reservation, register for a Texas Hold'em tournament, join a mailing list, or submit an enquiry, Riverand Marble may collect personal information such as your name, contact details, preferred booking time, and information about your group size or event requirements. This information is collected to manage bookings, coordinate offline poker events, and provide appropriate restaurant and card room services.

6.2 Use and storage of data

Personal data is managed in accordance with applicable Australian privacy laws. The venue takes reasonable steps to secure personal information and to use it only for legitimate purposes, such as confirming bookings, coordinating poker tables, sending necessary updates about events, or responding to your enquiries. The venue does not intentionally store sensitive poker data online in a way that is inconsistent with these principles.

6.3 Marketing communications

Where you have opted in, Riverand Marble may use your contact details to send you information about upcoming poker nights, Texas Hold'em tournaments, high roller card room sessions, or restaurant news, including menus and special events. You can opt out of marketing communications at any time by following the instructions in the message or by contacting the venue directly.

6.4 No unauthorised sharing

Riverand Marble does not sell or knowingly disclose guests' personal information to unrelated third parties for their own marketing. Limited sharing may occur with service providers who assist in delivering venue services, such as reservation platforms or communication tools, and only to the extent necessary to support your live poker experience and dining arrangements.

Further details can be found in the venue's Privacy Policy, which should be read together with these Terms and Conditions.

7.1 Venue rules and posted notices

From time to time, Riverand Marble may publish rules, notices, or guidelines relating to specific parts of the venue, such as the card room, bar, restaurant seating, or private event spaces. Guests are expected to observe these rules, which may be displayed inside the venue, communicated verbally by staff, or published on pages such as Offline Poker, Texas Hold'em Tournaments, Poker Nights, and Private Events.

7.2 Responsible service of alcohol

Any service of alcoholic beverages is conducted in line with responsible service requirements under Australian law and applicable licensing conditions.

7.3 No online play and no affiliation with online operators

Riverand Marble is not an online casino or digital gaming provider and is not affiliated with any online poker platform, external gaming operator, or card provider. All live poker experiences, including poker nights, Texas Hold'em tournaments, and high roller-style card room sessions, take place at the physical venue only. Guests must not represent the venue as an online gambling site or imply any such affiliation.

7.4 Activity limitations

The venue may restrict certain activities to preserve guest comfort and safety. This may include limitations on photography or filming in the card room, restrictions on loud or disruptive behaviour near tournament tables, and controls over the movement of chips or seating between tables. Guests must respect any designated quiet areas, late-night conduct expectations, or closing procedures.

7.5 Tournament and event changes

Riverand Marble may amend, postpone, or cancel scheduled Texas Hold'em tournaments, poker nights, or other buy-in poker events due to operational requirements, safety considerations, or insufficient registrations. Where practicable, the venue will provide updated information through its usual communication channels or directly to registered guests.
