you be the floor

stack size not important in a non rebuy live tourney.

with the blinds at 300-600 it folds to the CO who makes it 3000 to go.

the button folds and the small blind takes a long time to think.

the SB begins talking to the C/O trying to get information. after a good amount of time passes the SB folds.

The button is placed so close to the C/O it looks like the SB is actually last to act. The BB is covering his cards with his hands.

The C/O thinking he has won the pot now flips over his QQ.

The BB says nothing as the dealer collects all the cards, places them face down in the muck and then pushes the pot to the C/O.

As the C/O begins stacking his chips the BB finally says something. "Hey I still have cards here".

The floor is called over and the story told by the dealer and both players in question. Nobody is arguing over the actions that took place rather over what should now happen.

What is the correct decision? What would you decide?

i don't know about the rules but the BB and the dealer are idiots.

bb: tough [censored], you had a good 20 seconds to speak.
not that it matters, QQ+/AK are insta pushing. BB is a lucky idiot.

That is correct. They can be kicked in the nuts, but absolutely no ass kicking. We are civilized people.

If I was the floor I'd come over to the table, cup my hands around my mouth and yell in the direction of the player in the big blind, "HELLO MORON THIS MIGHT COME AS A SURPRISE BUT YOU ARE CURRENTLY PLAYING POKER YEAH RIGHT NOW CRAZY RIGHT." I'd include some echo effect with my own voice like "HEEELLLOOO (HELLO, HELLO, HELLO...)"

QQ is dead. BB takes down the pot.

But since it's a nice home game and we're dealing with a newbie, ask the BB if he thinks his hand is better than QQ. If he says 'no', then say, 'good.' If he says, 'yes', then say, 'Well then next time, act faster newb!' Then, push the blinds over the the CO-1 with QQ.

And yes, my post is very contradictory.
