Was playing 1/3 today and witnessed one of the greatest hands ever. Maybe it's tl;dr I probably can't do it justice, but I'll give it a go. It's a bit back and forward ... but honestly it could be the best hand ever.
On the river the board reads 53KK3
The first player bets $40. The 2nd player makes it $150 all in.
The 1st player turns to the dealer and says "Ok, so it's $150".
P2 assumed this was a call and turned up his 55.
The first player indicates that he hasn't called yet.
P2 starts to take the chips back and jokes "ah I let you off lightly"
P1 says "I haven't folded yet, I have 3 kings" turns his obv winning hand over, and then asks the dealer if his 3 kings beats the other guys three 5s (obv the dealer can't answer him), so
P1 has his Kx, and P2 has his lower full house turned face up.
This is where it get's interesting.
P2 says "look man I'm doing you a favour and reaches to grab P1s cards and muck them for him.
P1 starts going crazy asking why 3 x 5s beats his 3 x Ks. At this point he still hasn't announced call so the dealer can't exactly step in, and the rest of the table remains silent.
By this stage the entire table is wondering WTF is going on, but can't say anything, and it has literally taken like 5 minutes by this point.
Finally P1 stares at the board for a few minutes, realises he has won and calls. P2 starts laughing his head off telling him what a stupid call it is because his 55 has a full house.
Finally the dealer points out to P2 that P1 infact wins the hand and mucks the 5s full. Now P2 starts going crazy saying he had the winning hand and grabs his money AND P1's money and tries to walk away.
Finally the floor step in, and resolves the situation, but it was the most ridiculous / hilarious / mind boggling hand I've ever witnessed.
