The six rules.
Most places have one rule: don't be rude. We have six, all in the same spirit.
Show up on time
Bookings start on the hour. Hold time is ten minutes; after that, the seat opens to a walk-in.
No money games on standard tables
Wagers are not permitted on The Living Room, The Nook, or The Verandah tables. Tournament play has its own structure. See the calendar.
Food is self-service
1 BAM is a self-service space. Take a little break from your game and help yourself to one complimentary cup of freshly brewed coffee or our signature masala tea during your visit. You're also welcome to order food from outside and enjoy it in our Verandah seating area. If you're planning a larger gathering or event, we'd be happy to discuss catering options with you.
No mobile calls at the table
Step into the corridor. The room stays calm.
Each table is booked for 2 hours 45 minutes
Need more time? Ask staff for an extension — subject to floor demand.
Be a host
New players are always welcome. Explain a hand if asked — belonging is the whole point.
