Honesty at the table??
kinboshi:
Shouldn"t the player be given the right of response? Innocent until proven guilty, etc.? I don"t know who it was, but maybe they were new to live poker - maybe they followed the instructions of the TD and were worried that it would look like cheating if they passed chips to another player. Maybe they thought that the chips were rightly theirs?
IF, the situation is as described previously then I"d expect most players to do the honourable thing. However, if they haven"t intentionally tried to be dishonest then the witch hunt is a little harsh. People make mistakes. I certainly did with my AJ shove against KK...

"I certainly did with my AJ shove against KK..." LOL :D
Okay innocent "til proven guilty, but the silence is damning......
APAT:
There is no innocent and guilty here, the guy did not break any rules, so he has nothing to answer for and he is almost certainly unaware of this thread. That said, he needs to understand what our general expectations are in these situations and he will be informed of that. Other than that, no witch hunt here please, that"s not our style either.

Okay.

He certainly didn"t break any rules, and like I mentioned if he had passed some chips back to the other player after the TD had made his ruling - then he WOULD have been breaking the rules.
So if it wasn"t until after the ruling had been made that he realised his mistake, there"s not really much he can do.
