"I Play the Board," I lose the pot, I miss a bet.

[Randy_Refeld]

There no hostility intended. Once every few weeks someone wants to know if the winnign hand shoudl be declared dead so they can win the pot instead. The bottom line is if somebody puts their money and had the best hand they win. There are basically no exceptions to this, if the bets were equalized and you know someone has a better hand they win; anyone that asks the floor to award them the pot is at best a nit and at worse a thief.
