This rule includes the previous language about balancing tables in flop games and moving players from the big blind to the worst position.
Then a new sentence is added; “The table to which a player is moved will be as specified by a predetermined procedure.”
What does this mean? Could some of the participants add an explanation? Or maybe an example of a “predetermined procedure”?

The new TDA Rule Set that you agreed on this week is excellent. Great job by all.
I have a few questions about some of the changes and will put them in separate posts. This one concerns the new Rule 8.
Language now says “At Your Seat”, a change from the previous - At the table. Still does not require the player be IN the chair though. Was there discussion on this topic? Heard one director say it was ok if the player was “Touching” the chair.
Also, the new language takes out the previous provision of allowing the Big Blind hand to be not immediately killed, but to wait till the action comes around to it. Were there problems with the old method, or is this just to standardize things?
