Default Re: turning a hand

I've posted a story similar to bav's. Mine takes place literally weeks after the Moneymaker sensation swept the land, and every newb and his brother packed the poker rooms.

$1-2 NL. UTG makes it $80 to go (!). Several folds, a LP player calls. All fold to the BB, who moves all-in for about $375.

UTG snap-calls, and turns up his KK. BB quickly tables his AA.

"Hold on, fellas," says the dealer, "We got another player in this pot."

LP asks the dealer what the rules are in such a situation. The dealer tells him, "It's your turn to act. You can call all your chips, or fold."

LP ponders for a moment, calls (!!!!!!), and turns up KK (??????).

(Miraculously, AA somehow managed to hang on and win this one.)

I wonder if I'll live long enough to see the day that people stop saying that.
