I need some opinions regarding an action a floor took against me in a local tournament. here's the situation, everyone in front of me folds... I make a small raise 3x the blind ( blinds are 100- 200). The person to my left goes all-in ( he has about 4100) everyone behind him folds, I call his remaining chips. He has one $25.00 chip on his cards, so technically not all-in. The flop comes and I hit 2 pair. The all-in in player Says" I think I'm drawing dead", the turn comes I make a boat and then I turn over my hand and "say you are now". Everyone at the table screams "DEAD HAND DEAD HAND". Floor comes over and confirms its a dead hand as the other person still has a chip and action was not complete. How do you rule on this hand?

Is this hand dead?

There are general poker rules and then there are house rules on top of that. Some rooms allow showing of cards and some don't. Since it was heads up in a tournament and not a cash game, then you should be showing your cards before the flop anyways. Also, if he said all in and didn't just shove his chips, that chip on his cards is committed to the pot. If he just shoved his stack without saying anything, that is different. Sounds a bit odd to me.

Did he SAY all-in? Verbal actions are binding. Also, if the dealer kept dealing the cards out without anybody checking, then it was an all-in and hole cards should've been flipped. Sounds like you got cheated.

Weather or not the player declared All-in the hand is not dead.
