This happened in a home monthly league, 30 player tournament if that matters. People are playing for cash and points for year end event. Game is semi-serious, wide range of players, and is well run (not my game). How would this be handled in a casino? and is this a big deal?
3 players get to the river, first 10 minutes of the tournament, so all stacks are essentially equal, Player 1 has the other two covered by like 200.
Player 1 goes all in on the river
Player 2 goes into the tank for a few minutes and then calls
Player 1 then goes to show his cards 'apparently' forgetting about player 3, the table tells him to wait for player 3
Player 1 does not show his cards and makes a comment saying "I was going to show a losing hand".
Player 3 goes into the tank for a few minutes and then decides to make the call
Player 1 had the nuts and knocks the other two out.
More details: The board is Q,9,8,K,2 - no possible flush
Player 1 - had J,10 and flopped the nut straight on the Q,9,8 flop
Player 2 - had 9,8 so they flopped two pair, thinking Player1 missed his draw and his two pair is good
Player 3 - had K,Q so they turned top two pair, Player 3 said he was going to fold but when Player 1 said he had a losing hand, layer 2 went in the tank, so he thought he was good.
