Best option would be for him to be treated all in with the chips he has in the pot already like when you disconnect online imo

not a good idea, after a while many players would start abusing it by pretending they are dead when they want a free showdown.

timeout is check-fold right? Just wait till his timer runs out, then he checks and you can take the pot by minbetting. scoop the thing and put the chips in your stack, then you might wanna check on the guy who had a heart attack

I was at the Winstar when an old dude moved all in got called and fell over dead from a heart attack.

The guy who called had the nut flush (showed me and the other guy next to him) and mucked his hand. The paramedics worked on him for like 20 minutes but couldnt revive him.

It kinda ruined the mood and the table broke up pretty quickly after this happened.

He has a stiff drink to forget about it.
