Re: Rules Question
[ QUOTE ]
So player A's hand is still live? What if it's a limit game? They just play out the rest of the hand with Player A's cards sitting there on the muck? [/ QUOTE ] The rule varies by Casino. At some your hand is dead once it touches the muck. At others if your cards can be easily distinguished (which in your case they will be) they allow your hand to be live. A good practice is to wait till the dealer pushes you the pot before mucking your hand. |

Re: Rules Question
This happened in our home game last night between two new players. We (we being me and the only other experienced regular in the game) weren't sure what to do.
Player C made it easy on us by just folding (he was beat obviously) but some of the players were arguing he had the only live hand and should have won the pot be default. I guess we should set a rule for this type of thing. |

Agreed, you need a rule. [/ QUOTE ] Rule should be for everyone: Do not muck or otherwise let go of the "winning hand" until the pot is in front of you. Fair exchange. Your cards for the pot. |
