Title: Hand Ruling Post by: dan_arbon on January 07, 2014, 08:30:36 PM This happened at a house game this weekend but just wondered what an 'official' ruling would be. I do appreciate that it may vary from venue to venue, tour to your etc...
Hand has been dealt out, a fold and 4 limps before action falls to the small blind. Small blind player then announces that he has 3 cards and has looked at the face of all 3. Thoughts?

He forfeits his hand, & Small Blind, & then play continues as normal. Optionally, he may be taken outside & summarily shot.
