Opinion/Ruling please ?

ian.ski309:
This happened towards the end of a home game last week. I"d be interested to know what the ruling would or should have been had it happened during a live tournament in a casino and the floor had been called in these circumstances....

A player with a 12K stack limps for 1600 chips in early position, I shove my 14K with KK on the button and then the BB also shoves his last 7K. The action folds around to the limper.

Whilst the limper is pondering, the BB lifts up the corners of his cards and shows his AA to other players at the table. The limper who is still to act, catches sight of the hand and promptly mucks his cards, thereby denying me a potential side pot.

You are the floor, I"m absolutely furious - what now ?

HOLDorFOLD:
Sucks ...

but as far as I"m aware, "AA" hand exposed is still live, you are both all in and cannot make any further action and hand plays out. If BB wins the pot then he "should" be given a penalty for exposing hand (orbit or 3 hand sit out etc).   You are within your rights to shout for a King as loud as you can and fist pump when it comes  ;)


If, on other hand there were chips behind then BB player would not be able to make any further aggressive action, he can only call any further bets.


I believe the above to be correct in most places but wait for others to respond.

AMRN:
What she said.

Although, some places will declare a deliberately exposed hand dead.

Delboy:
Depends who"s home it is. obv.

Live hand but penalty for the guy, if it was my home game the penalty would be a good kicking. I"d also penalise the guy limping with 8bbs and then tanking for being terrible
