Table Ruling

in Brick & Mortar Casino Talk
This situation came up a few days ago when I was at Casino Windsor playing $1-$2. Preflop the action goes around doesn't really matter what happens. I push allin on a flop of 7-8-2, I get 2 callers, turn is a 4 with 2 hearts, 1 guy pushed all in another calls, the river was a 3 of diamonds. The guy next to me waits to flips his cards the other guys show 86 of diamonds. The guy next to me thinks he loses and flips Q9 face up swears and leaves the poker room. Who wins the pot??

    Um...

    You have X-X.

    1 guy has 8d-6d.

    Other guy has Q-9.

    Board is 7-8-2-4-3 (no flush).

    Well, a pair of 8's beats Queen high. So the guy with 8-6 wins the side pot. Without knowing what you had, it is hard to say if you won the main pot or he got that too.

    The guy that swore thinking he lost is offering poker lessons if you need them.

    Sorry it was a typo. He had Q8 and won the main pot but left the table and the poker room who gets the pot??

    Did he muck his hand?

    I would think the pot gets pushed to his spot and then the floor should chase him down and it acts like he is sitting out.

    Cards talk - push him the pot, then blind him out.

    As long as he didn't throw his hand into the muck, Q8 is awarded the side pot... and the main pot as well if you can't beat Q8. Whatever the casino policy is for players leaving their chips unattended then applies.

    As usual with any rules question, IT DEPENDS
    on the house rules. I believe that some casinos' house rule is that if the player is not at the table, then he has given up the pot. The guy with 8-6 sooted would then win the pot instead.

    my thought too was to push the pot to the winning hand of Q8 but the dealer disagreed with me and tried to award the pot to the other guy, She didn't want to believe he won the hand even tho he flipped his cards before he left the table. I called the floor over and he agreed with me and even still the dealer was putting up a fight saying he shouldn't win the pot. Only reason I cared because it was my buddy who left his huge pot but if I wasn't there he wouldn't have gotten his pot. He thanked me by buying beer.
