Last night I was playing in my weekly home $20 buy-in NL tournament, when multiple players made a claim that just dropped my jaw.


I raised the pot heads up with another player with AsKd when the flop came Ad-9d-2d. I lead out, and another player folded after about 2 minutes of thinking, but insisted we rabbit hunt. I didn't care, and a diamond came up on the turn and he showed disappointment that he missed his flush, but I showed my Kd, giving me the nut flush. The dealer went to the river and it was a 5th diamond, to which everybody was in awe. Another player came in and said to my heads up opponent "You folded a split pot!" as if it were a horrible play. I tried to point out that since I had the Kd that I would have won with an AK9** flush over AJ9**, but 3 of the 6 players were convinced that since the board had an ace high flush, it would have been split.

Just a little curious as to other bizarre claims similar to this that have players in other home games have made.
