what is the rule for this.
 

i was at a friendly home game the other night. first hand.

everbody started out with 2000 in chips.

UTG BETS 1000

I go all in with 99.

seat 6 and seat 7 shows each other their hands... seat 6 folds a 77....seat 7 calls.

what should have been the rule for showing each other cards?

Re: what is the rule for this.
 

Seat 7's hand is dead.

I would tell them that collusion isn't tolerated, even in a friendly game. Then, if were my place, i would tell them they are welcome to leave if they do it again. And if it wasn't my place, I wouldn't go back if it happened again.

What's bothering me is how you had only 99 chips on the first hand when everyone started with 2000. [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

Wow, was it his first time playing? What were the blinds? As far as your situation goes I would tell them that's cheating and the hand should be ruled dead. However, conmsidering how savvy your friends appeasr to be I'm assuming they don't know the rules. So explain and then let them know they'll be enforced in the future.

Good luck,
Matt

Dead hand and a warning for both of them

Re: what is the rule for this.
 

If both of you were seriously confused by his post, you need to work on your reading comprehension.

It was obvious what he meant, the extra detail wasn't required.
