This happened in tonight's Super Thursday ($150 buyin multi) on Party (Names changed to "y" and "z" to protect the innocent/guilty; y was on button and z was in BB)
y: i wanna quit for tonight z
y: so ill give u my chips
Dealer: y is all-In.
Dealer: z calls [1525].
Dealer: ** Dealing Flop ** [ 2c, Jh, Ad ]
Dealer: ** Dealing Turn ** [ 4c ]
Dealer: ** Dealing River ** [ 5d ]
Dealer: z shows three of a kind, jacks.
Dealer: y shows high card ace.
Dealer: Player y finished in 238 place
#1281243203: z wins 3875 chips from the main pot with three of a kind, jacks.
y: thanks
Dealer: y has left the table.
Dealer: Game #1281247916 starts.
Dealer: Trny:7778919 Level:6
Blinds (75/150)
Dealer: There is no Small Blind in this hand as the Big Blind of the previous hand left the table.
Dealer: ** Dealing down cards **
z: gg
y: i wanted to quit
---------------
What is interesting about this hand is that player "z" had chatted up player "y" for a little bit before this hand. I don't think they really knew each other before this game, but, player z, just by being nice to player y, got player y's chips basically for free.
I learned two things from this hand
1) It actually pays to be nice at the table. Don't blow up when someone sucks out on you. Just say "gg" and "nh" and move on. Maybe someday the goodwill you build up over time will come back to help you.
2) People do things at these big buyin/multis that you wouldn't expect.
