Bughouse has many regional rules, but most of the rules given on this page
do correspond to the international and widely accepted ones. For
tournaments you need to be a little more precise about the handling of
some potential problems, but here I would just add that :
- I never heard about 'serious' bughouse played without a clock
or at a time control exceeding 5 minutes per player and per move.
- Verbal communication between partners is always unrestricted, and is
the
absolute spirit of the game. So you can advice (or flame) your partner.
And I advice everybody to keep an eye on the publishing of Georg's book,
which will probably be the definite saying about bughouse !
