Who wins?

[TheGusman]

I play with a group of friends and this situation has arrisen a few times recently and created a few arguments as everyone has a different opinion on it. We play Tourney holdem with first, second and third placed finishers taking various ammounts.

there are 3 players left, Player A is short stacked and C is chip leader. A goes all in, pre flop, players b and c call. Player b goes all in after the flop and C calls. C has the best hand and finishes first. A's hand is better than Bs. So my question is, who should take second?

[Spladle Master]

Whoever had more chips at the beginning of the hand gets second.

B gets 2nd. he had more chips at the start of the hand. no doubt about it, this is how it works.

also you should have posted this in another forum, but no worries.

Who ever has the most money at the begining of the hand finishes 2nd. If B had more money than A at the start of the hand he finishes 2nd.
