Hi all
Just looking for opinions on a specific situation that happened at a game I was at during the weekend. Tried looking for examples online but didn't find anything.
Player A bet 2000 on the river. Player B raised to 4000, verbally stated it and put the chips down. Player A thought it was just a call but instantly turned their cards over.
As this was happening, there was a lot of chatter at the table. Player A didn't hear the verbal raise and thought it was a call.
Player B did have the winning hand but should player A have to pay the additional 2000? There was no verbal call from Player A but the cards were flipped thinking it was a showdown.
I would imagine the cards were classed as mucked and the extra 2000 shouldn't be given to Player B.
Flipping it round, if Player A had the winning hand, they still wouldn't take the pot as the cards were mucked.
What do you think?
