Default Boy I pulled a real doozy......

First off I feel bad for what I did and tried to offer the guy half the pot AFTER the fact, but he was steaming and would not take the money. He said it was a matter of princable. OK, im playing 4-8 holdem and there is about $20 or so in the pot. It's heads up now, the guys says "split the pot?" I say sure ok. Well, when I found out my ace high was good, the dealer pushed the entire pot to me. I said, we agreed to split the pot, dealer said "I have to shove the chips to you, then you can split it with him." Well, regrettably I said to myself, hey I dont HAVE to split the pot with this guy, im just going to keep the whole thing for myself." Well, when I didnt split the pot, EVERYONE except for this one guy got up and left the table. Needless to say, I felt pretty bad. I ran the guy down and offered to give him the money. He would not take it, he said its a matter of principle. Anyway, I've been back to the cardroom 100 times since than and havnt had any problems, but how out of line was I here?

I personally hate the "lets split the pot" line - just play the hand out and you wont have to worry about not giving him half when you get shoved the pot

You realized it..you messed up. Im sure youve learned.
Quite similar to the "check it down" requests.

A total douche move. But I can't understand splitting a pot anyway, to me it opens the door for collusion and Casino should not allow it.

Another life lesson for the incredibly low price of $10. I'm guessing you're early 20's at best. You are going to remember this until the day you die and it's well worth it.

Plus: doozy.

Level in BBV, not in the cardroom.

If $10 was enough to light your greed button, I'd hate to see what happens to you in a $200 pot...'everyone get down on the floor!'
