this hand happened during a tourney in dtd.

basicly this guy had 57 oon a 64ka3 board rainbow.

he lead out and got min raised which he only flat called.


should there be any punishment for flat calling because it caused abit of an arguement on the table.

the 57 guy just said he is new and didnt know he had the nuts.

how can you punish a guy if he genuinely didn't know.

I'm sure something would be done if it was a $20k high roller event with mate vs mate but bit different in a local £50 donkament.

one other guy said that he shouldnt be playing if he didnt know he had the nuts. And he should get a penalty so he will know for the future

the two opponents didnt know each other.

This happened a few weks ago at DTD on my table

I politely told the lady that she isnt allowed to just flat call, but that I realised she didnt play often and was just letting her know. She seemed funny about be telling her the rules, fortunately the dealer  backed me up. I did point out that just 5 mniutes before her husband was also on the table and people might take exception if he was her opponent. Then she got it.

I think if its clear they are a noob - just let them know after the hand

personally i love it when people flat call my raises with the nuts  Grin

if its clear collusion then obv they should get a penalty. Common sense to rule here imo

It really gets my goat when you get people saying "you shouldnt be playing if you didnt know you had the nuts" , we have all been new to the game at some point and made silly mistakes , someone usually "educates" you thats how you learn

like a previous poster said if its a high roller event then i can see why the argument however in a local donkament you have to expect little things like this to crop up from time to time

How about when you bet out on the river with zee nutz and someone reraises you for all his stack !!! how much time are you allowed to recheck your own hand to be sure ?? Nut flush vs a straight, he misread the 3 hearts on the board :-) thank heaven for tired players lololol I was genuinely confused for more than 5 seconds !!

It gets me when someone has AA and checks when an A comes down on the flop.

I've seen this happen before. Felt a bit sorry for the guy who flat called because he did get punished as everybody spent then next 30 minutes slating him.

only had one spot like this in a live comp and if i cared about the buyin i woulda complained... playing a 30fo at local shithole gala... i have  and the board runs out  and villain checks to me on the river... i have 6k chips and know i can probably only win by bluffing... i bet 3k... villain only calls with  ... unbeatable hand... i ask him why he didn't raise and he said he thought i was never going to call anymore LOL... if it was 100fo or above i woulda tried to call the floor and report this as cheating for sure...

I'd like to see a warning given for the situation in op. it makes it clear to the player that they shouldn't do it again and more importantly if the td has dealt with the situation it might stop the other players going on and on about it for the next hour and boring me to tears

def no penalty though
