1) I was playing in a live MTT the other day and an interesting hand came up where no-one was sure of the exact ruling I was hoping someone could clarify.
We are at the final table and there are 5 left, MP folds, I shove 12BB, BTN folds, SB pushes 8BB and BB folds.
The SB then throws his hand in the muck and tries to take the pot from the middle. I tell him that I was all in and everyone wonders what to do next. Everyone apart from the SB knew I was all in.
The muck consists of 4cards and SB wants to tell someone his cards, have them take them from the muck and play the hand. I rationalise that he might not have even pushed had he known I was all in.
After some discussion the person in charge awards the entire pot including SB' chips to me and the SB leaves pissed off.
Anyone know if this is the correct decision?
2) I have a second question about a second MTT I have just remembered.
There was a hand where I open utg CO 3b and I 4b push. The CO asks me how much it is and I tell him it's 13k this is where the confussion occured as he took it to be 13k in total where as I believe I am telling him it's 13k to call. He pays the lower amount about 6k too little we play out the hand I win and about 4hands later I am stacking my chips and counting them and realise I don't have the correct amount. Is this just a question of being more clearing in stating the amount of chips you have? If I have clearly stated it's 13k to call and have witnesses at the table to back this up can I get him to pay these chips after the hand is over?
Thanks for the help
