Yesterday I was playing a friendly game of NLHE at my friend's house. 8 person game tournament game and it finally wound down to us two heads up. I have about 35% of the chips at this point to his 65. I push on ac6c and he quickly calls. He's got ad 10h so I've got the worst of it for sure, really need a 6 to come. Flop comes a 9 8 with two clubs. Now I've got a couple more outs, turn is a 7, and then the river is a 6. At this point he has the straight and I just have 2 pair but everyone who is watching, including him thinks I've won it. He's reaching down to start counting chips and everyone is congratulating me. I point it out that he just won, and everyone doesn't really know what to do. Some people recommended a split pot, but the kid I was playing said he _definitely_ would have noticed it. In the end I settled for my 2x my entry fee, and he kept the other 6. Would you have told him!?

agreed. in a friendly game, ill call anothers hand if they dont see it.

if im playing with people i dont know, i wont call it for them. part of playing is knowing what you have. if someone else calls it for them, i have no problem with that.
 
i normally would have no qualms doing this, but lately he has been adament about a "dumbass rule" where you have to call your hands. if you don't call the right hand you don't have it. i think i should have just shut up 🙁!

True, unless he mucked his hand. If he just started counting chips, with his cards still face up on the table, he is the winner. If he flipped his cards face down, or threw them in the muck pile, he gave up all claim to the pot, and you win.

Edit - learn to read the board better - you turned a straight 😛
 
WTF? Everyone misses the straight draw, and when you point it out, they don't know what to do?

Who the hell were you playing with

My bad, I saw 65 in your post, and thought that was your hand. 😱

he meant A 9 8 came on the flop. He didn't say what suit the A was.
