So, today, I was playing in a tournament at a local card room and came up against a very strange situation.
I was in the big blind with 66 and called a raise from middle position. The flop came 25A rainbow, I checked, the chap followed through with 2k following his 2k raise. I repopped it to 5k, leaving 3k behind me, knowing he didn't have an Ace, putting him on an underpair 99-JJ. Anyway, he says "You're ahead" puts the extra 3k in and throws his cards over. Now, he has chips behind, as do I, neither is all on, but he thought I was and flipped over his cards (Pocket 9s).
Should his cards have been deemed dead? Ignoring the play, what should have happened here?
