Players betting 'all-in' must clearly declare their action and move an obvious amount of their entire chip stack forward, unless an 'all-in button' is used.
An 'all-in' bet binds a player’s entire chip stack to the hand, including any hidden chips. Discovered chips are to be considered in the outcome as if the chips were in plain view. An eliminated 'all-in' player will have no redress if they discover hidden chips, provided that the opponent(s) had sufficient chips to cover the hidden one(s).
When a player is 'all-in' and no further betting action is possible, the dealer must stop all action and instruct the players to turn their cards 'face up,' players will be in a 'showdown' situation. Dealers must ensure that all cards are exposed before continuing with any action.
An 'all-in' bet of less than a full raise does not reopen the betting to a player who has already acted.
If a player is 'all in' or any player involved in the 'showdown,' accidentally or intentionally 'folds/mucks' their hand before cards are turned 'face up,' the dealer must immediately bring this to the attention of a Floor Person or Tournament Director. Management reserves the right to retrieve the folded/mucked cards, if the cards are clearly identifiable. Venues/ House Rules that are governed by juridical gaming laws pertaining to a retrievable rule shall apply.
