Re: Home Game - Argument gets started
Yes, obviously the hand is over and the payout stands.
Having said that, the same is true for a string raise, or folding your big blind when there's no raise. We let go of a lot for beginning players. Solution is obvious. Split the money the way they want. Next time explain poker rules to them before you play. Assume they are either completely clueless and naive, or just naggy nitty people who might not be your friends for much longer. If that's what they're like, you can do better. Be polite, just don't have an evening of monopoly with them, or go to a restaurant where you need to split the bill.

Re: Home Game - Argument gets started
Your friend was new to poker from what you posted. I would say she doesn't understand the basises for the rules of poker. Take the time to explain hands can not be contested after they get mucked and certainly not a few days afterwards.
If she got second place then she did win some money didn't she?

Re: Home Game - Argument gets started
Old established rule, appearing in print at least as late as 1950, when the pot has been collected it is over. Even if the pot was incorrectly given to someone. If it were a tie then they should have said so before the pot was collected.
Oh by the way, why play poker with friends when you could potentially lose them and there is a whole Internet full of strangers waiting to lose their money to you?
