Need help on "running them twice"
Last night at our home game two players decided to run them twice after the flop. Player A won the first round, however the board staighted for a tie on the second round. What was the appropriate course of action after that? Chopped pot? Run them a third time? Player A wins whole pot?
Any help is appreciated, thanx. |

why did they agree to run it twice when they didnt know the rules for it is the first question.
Also it is taken as 2 seperate boards, each with the same flop but different turn and river. Therfore treat it like 2 sperate hands. Whoever wins the first hand wins half the pot, as the second when was tied, they split the 2nd half of hte pot |

player A wins 3/4 the pot, player B wins 1/4
It's as if you're playing two pots that are exactly half the size of the actual pot. One player won the first, and they split the second 50/50. Last edited by ChuckTs : 02-12-2007 at 9:02 PM. |

One difference, it's against the rule in football, depending on house rules it's legal in poker. I don't like it because I figure I play enough that the math will even out in the long run anyway, I don't need help evening it out for a single hand.

Running it twice is stupid in a casino game, but in a friendly game where you're just there to have some fun (and possibly make some extra money) then I see no problem with it.
