Hi guys, just encountered this situation at Crown Casino here in Melb, and was wondering what the standard ruling in Vegas or wherever u guys may play.
2/5 table, minimum buy in 200, max of 500. This fish sat down with 300 and ran it up to 1.5k in 3hrs. was 5am at that time and he was going to leave. He suddenly declared to the table after the cards have been dealt (he was UTG), 'Alright guys, my last hand, i'm all in.' He then pushed 33 dollars into the middle.
All of us were stunned and asked who had stacked him. Nobody had. The dealer asked him, and he showed that he had racked the remaining 1.4k and placed it on a chair beside him, not visible to the rest of the table.
While everyone was exclaiming and saying that all of it should be in the centre as he had verbally declared all in, I took the opportunity to look down on my hand (was MP). Saw JJ. Was then very interested in what the ruling will be as the supervisor came over. The sup listened to the story recounted by the dealer, and then came to the ruling. 'As you had declared all-in, but the 1.4k was not visible to the rst of the table, for this time only, the bet stands at $33 but the remainder of the 1.4k will be in play for the remainder of this hand.'
Obviously everyone was unhappy, not the least me. The rest of the hand is irrelevant so i will not recount it unless someone's curious.
Just wondering, what do u guys reckon the ruling will be at other casinos?
