Re: Who gets the KITN?

The dealer gets a KITN. 20% is a trivially easy to notice.
What it boils down to is Player A was dishonest about the size of his bet. In these situations, I'm in favor of rulings that give the offending player the short end of any result. In this case, Player A doesn't get $41 extra if he wins, but Player B gets the $41 if he wins.
There's no way to know how either would have reacted had the full bet size been known. Since the best person to know Player A's stack is Player A, he's the most at fault, so he gets to eat it.

This is the way I see it also. Player A's comment about being all-in prevented action on the river. To avoid possible angle shooting, Player A cannot benefit from his mistake at showdown. Player A loses it all if he loses or wins only the amount of the called bet if he wins.
