Home Game Rand Ruling Question
In a 6 handed game the other night with all 6 people still in, I went all in before the flop. I had a king/deuece of clubs. 2 People called.
The flop was 2 clubs and an irrelevant card. The other 2 people checked. The turn was a King, both checked again. The river was a 3rd club on the board. One person bet, the other folded. So I said what do you have? The guy who bet said, I've got Kings. I then said I've got Kings... I paused, but I've also got a deuce of clubs. Showing the King high club flush. The guy who lost the hand then got mad because I didn't call the flush immediately. He thought he had split the pot. He had thought that the pot should be split, because I said I had Kings, so therefore I have Kings. And not a flush. I was always under the impression that the cards speak for themselves. Granted, it could be viewed partly as a dick move on my part for not saying I had the flush right away. However, you can't exactly ignore the cards. Can I get some feedback on this? I mean, in a casino a dealer is having you place your cards on the table and then the best hand showing wins. Could this be simply a house rule people use? Any feedback is great. |

Unless there's a house rule about "declare your hand" then cards should speak.

No, it was definately a dick move, especially after you slow rolled before then with the "what do you have?" bullshit comment. But he is wrong- it is cards-speak, no matter what you said. However, don't pull that crap again- it's childish and stupid- that kind of move can only be pulled to punish habitual slow-rolling dicks. |

Yes it was a dick move, and I was always under the impression that making a dick move in a friendly home game is a great way to prevent getting invited back. If this happened at my game, I would give you the pot, and then kick you in the nuts. Then I would proceed to "not exactly" hear you whining like a girl. If you are looking for approval, you will not find it here. Slowrolling is for asses. |

Re: Home Game Rand Ruling Question
Why were you all in with K2 suited? Secondly, as the host, I we play modified declaire. If its an obvious hand, i.e two pair with one on the board, there is little debate. But if you call kings and you have a flush, you have the kings. Its a eay to have people learn their hands and to call them. In my juristiction, you lose. (Since he obviously had to have a better kicker)
