Re: Looking for a ruling
[ QUOTE ]
In a ring game, yes, legal. In a tournament, probably a warning, possibly a penalty. The hand is never dead. TDA rules are clear on the tourney side. [/ QUOTE ] Good thing we aren't discussing a tourney hand here. [ QUOTE ] I saw that tournament rules vary here, but we are playing a ring [/ QUOTE ] |

Re: Looking for a ruling
[ QUOTE ]
If there had been more than two players left in the tournamet the exposing player would have been subject to a penalty. [/ QUOTE ] Saw once where a player put out his stack and announced all-in, second player called and all others folded. All-in guy then flips over his cards and so does the caller. Caller gets a 20 minute penalty because the all-in guy had string bet and still had one chip behind. (the all-in guy also got a penalty, not that it mattered) |

Re: Looking for a ruling
Now thats completely stretching the rules to institute a penalty, but it is legal. Although the person who gave out the penalties should be kicked in the nuts.

Re: Looking for a ruling
Perhaps you have a lot more leeway for this kind of nonsense in no limit ring games, but you're still asking for trouble here by pulling this stunt.
If this guy flips his cards face up, whether towards the flop or muck, and doesn't push in chips, and doesn't say "call," then if the dealer mucks his hand and pushes the pot the other way, there is no recourse. Basically he's just folded face up. If you actually WANT your cards, you shouldn't release them. However, if his hand is still live, and then he says call, it's a call, no matter how bad his etiquette may be. al |

Re: Looking for a ruling
No, another case of the floor not knowing the rules.
When the man said "all-in", he's all-in. Whether or not all the chips got pushed forward is immaterial. Any floor who deems that a string-bet, doesn't know the first thing about poker. |
