After the flop A & B are heads up:

A: 200

B: 200 (call)

A: ALL IN !?! (meaning it’s what he’s gonna do after the turn!) 

My decision: I refuse this, put the turn and ask the player to play again (and give him a warning for playing “out of turn”!).

Your opinion?

Hello,

A pot had been awarded as a split between 2 players after the river and multiples bets & raises from a lots of players.

One of the two winner (who was all-in) claims that he didn’t received the good amount. The other winner (a very big stack) allready mixed his chips and say that the split was correct! The all-in player is getting mad about that … Can the TD or Dealer do something or is it over?

The question could also be: until what moment can you contest a count of the chips awarded to a player by the dealer?

Hello, here is what happened:

A dealer - B is SB - C is BB - D is UTG

B & C are eliminated together during this hand

B & C chairs are the only free places at this table

X is coming at the table from a broken table

Where do you sit X and how are the blinds?

I decided:

D is BB

C chair stay free (no SB)

X sit on B chair and have the button

A is cut-off

& next turn:

E is BB

D is SB

C is free with the button

X is cut-off

The question could be more simple: when SB & Bouton places are the only free: where do you place an incoming player?
