Re: I bluff in a tourney, other players offer cash for him to call
That is REALLY messed up! After the hand I would definitely yell at the people offering the money and have a talk with the host.
Regarding showing cards, I have a few players that will show their hands AFTER going all in so that someone chasing a flush wont try to suck out. Last night a guy showed a set of Kings on the turn because he knew the other guy was on a flush draw. I would never show in that situation, but I'm not afraid of a suck out every now and then. My favorite is when I have AK preflop and someone tries to intimidate me by showing an Ace. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Also no offense but after re-readng your post that was a pretty dumb move on your part as well. After my first read I assumed you were ridiculously short stacked, but you're not, and to make such a move with six people left and in an attempt to steal only one blind is probably not wise. [/ QUOTE ] There were 6 left at our table, 6 at the other table (12 people left, top 3 get paid)

2) One player per hand. This a rule everywhere. [/ QUOTE ] I just want to clarify what this means. Does this mean that for a given hand, only one person has decision making power over what play to make? Sorry if this is a stupid question, but I just wanna be sure.

Showing his set of kings makes his hand dead...so, he went all in and folded.

Re: I bluff in a tourney, other players offer cash for him to call
No, I let people show their hands (I'm the host). If they want to show what they have, by all means! It might make my decision easier. I would never do it though.

Re: I bluff in a tourney, other players offer cash for him to call
Let me get this straight - if I have a set of Kings and go all in, I can turn my hand over before someone calls or folds? Why in the hell would I want to do that? Now, I can see the rule where the person who is left to call or not (with no other action behind mind you) can turn up his cards, but the person who moves all in? That makes no sense what so ever.
Let's say you move in and show your AQ two pair on a AKQ board. Well, I have AK so now my desicon is very easy becasue you showed me what you moved in with. Don't you think that defeats the purpose of the game? I mean, there is no decision to be made, you're either beat or not. Whether or not you call with a draw would be based on odds / read alone, not seeing the other hand. SO you show me a set of Kings. Well I have a flush draw. I have the same hand and odds that I had before you showed me, same decision. Yes, you can come up with scenarios that would make more sense, like flush draw against a boat etc... but overall this is just silly.

Re: I bluff in a tourney, other players offer cash for him to call
Definately against the rules. How would THEY like it if you talked someone into calling against THEM?
