Here is what we do.
Your on the phone, you are out of the hand.
Music is ok.
No texting what so ever. We do not want players to be able to text one another during a tournament and or cash game and try to pinch players or feed chips to one another.
Now in Pennsylvania Casino's - You can use your phone if you are not, I repeat, not in the hand. You must have the phone visable and once the next hand starts you either turn it to sleep or muck. If at any time they want to check your phone activity, you must show, If they catch you cheating with another player at the table, boh players will be asked to leave and you run the risk of being banned as well as subject to arrest.
Sands in Bethlehem there have been people caught doing exactly that and have been banned and were arrested. Its a serious charge so running the risk is stupid. If you're playing in a tournament or cash game, just put the phone on vibrate and tell people to text you in an emergency.
