Title: rules Post by: tonge on June 28, 2007, 09:38:02 PM Hi iv not been playing that long and wondered if someone could just answer my querie,
The rivers just been dealt and player A has hit a straight ace high, he raises and player B calls him with a straight king high,player A announces he has a straight ace high and player B concedes the pot, player C who is nt involved then lets player B know he has a flush he has nt seen, who wins the hand? player A because B has conceded, or player B who should have won it if he had known what he was doing? This happened in a game i was playing in and the manager decided it was a split pot! Title: Re: rules Post by: Royal Flush on June 28, 2007, 09:39:39 PM It depends where Player B's cards are.
If they are exposed he wins the pot, if they are in the muck he loses. Title: Re: rules Post by: tonge on June 28, 2007, 09:45:16 PM He placed them on the table facing up, thats how I player C saw he had a flush, I told him but did nt know what should happen next! most people, especially player A seemed to think i should have kept my nose out, not sure if it was poor etiquette or not!

Title: Re: rules Post by: Claw75 on June 28, 2007, 09:54:11 PM similar thing happened to me the other week. I had Ahrt Td vs short stack's 8s 8c the flop came down with a couple of 4s on it, A on the turn. The guy rivered a flush but no one (including the casino dealer) noticed it until after the guy had stood up and a third player pointed it out - he got the whole pot, which I had no argument with.

Penalty to be inflicted on Player C, who is not involved in hand: Tournament/SnGs etc: Pat on the back for being alert, the result affects all players on the Comp Cash Games: Invite to discuss outside. Title: Re: rules Post by: RichEO on June 29, 2007, 12:12:51 AM The cards speak. The dealer should award the pot to the winning hand. In the absense of a dealer or a dealer who is capable of identifying the winning hand correctly I think it only fair that someone points it out.
