2024 POKER TDA SUMMIT XI / Re: what are the hot topics for this year?
« Last post by Dave Miller on May 17, 2024, 07:48:52 AM »Thanks for the explanation. That makes sense. You didn’t mention the obvious: that the SM also gets to take his SB back. The entire pot is the single chip ante.
Here's my ruling: It sucks, but if chopped, the odd chip goes to the small blind - left of the button. While it's true that if we weren't doing ante first, this wouldn't even be a question, this unique situation is no reason to consider not doing ante first.
Frankly, we shouldn't even consider making a rule for this very rare situation. A player that allowed himself to get into such a low stack situation must suffer the consequences. Sucks to be you buddy, but rules are rules.
Before anyone tries to invoke the rule that you can't be eliminated during a color-up race, that's a different situation, with no rules regarding player position.
