Didn't Barry Greenstein's book mentioned that at least one time this happened somewhere and the player was declared all-in?

I believe so.

but if the dead player doesn't table his hand (both cards face up on the table), obviously it needs to be considered folded.

Does it matter if dead guy craps his pants? Seems like this could be important.

WTF, the guy is dead. Money is of no use to him and his wife is now rich from the life insurance settlement. His hand is DEAD.

if he won the hand, he won the hand. no rule saying you have to be alive

[Josem]

rule says you have to table your hand.

he didn't do that. so, he is folded.
