I'm sitting here bored, waiting for the BH at 11:30, when this thought occurred to me... as random thoughts tend to do at this time of night.

Here's the situation.

A SNG  Double Your Money  all the players go all in on the first hand so all 12,000 chips are in the pot.  One player wins the pot.


Here's the question.

Who gets the money?  Does the winner get all the money or is there some weird Poker rule that allows the first people to bet to get paid as well?

Anyone know what would happen?


I'd set up a game with 5 mates to see what happens,  but I don't have 5 mates    SIGH!

    The money goes to the people who are last to react - so if you were the first to call the all in for instance and you didn't win the hand, you would theoretically be the first out.

    If the all inner didn't win the hand though, he would be first out and so it goes round.

    Drat ......... I switched off and went to bed just after I posted, otherwise I would have been in for it.

    Did you do it and what happened?

    If it happened I missed it but I'm happy to do it as soon as we get the numbers.

    I am.
    Need to be careful that no unsuspecting punter joins though.

    This may well be my best chance of a cash for some time too.  :-)

    I know so we need to confirm entrants and get to the table at the same time rather than one person joining and everyone else following.

    If we did it at a £110 table we'd be more likely to get the table to ourselves. :-)
    I've put my towel on the seat with the BB anyway.
