I was playing in a $5 private tournament style with about 9 players. As the game wound down I was the dealer and player X went all in. All the hands, 2 or three were face up, and player X pulled all the chips from the pot in front of him. He was essentially saying he won the hand. The cards said he did not and I, the dealer said that he had not won. I prevailed and he was irate and said since I wasn't in the hand I shouldn't have said anything.
As the dealer I felt obligated to call the hand. Another player sided with me in that it hadn't been agreed before the game that a player had to call his hand to win.
Player X has been known to pull and attempt to pull a fast one once in a while.
Should I have stayed out of it? If that's the case what's to prevent him or anyone from overstating their hand against an unsuspecting/trusting player.
