max buy-in rulings (FL capped buy-in)

[franknagaijr]

FL poker, max buy-in at the 2/5 is $100. (No, that's not a typo, one-hundred dollars maximum.) Player A sits down and folds two hands, then puts it all in the middle on a flush draw. Except Player A puts in about $200. Player B with the large pocket pair matches the bet, A hits flush draw and now has a stack of $400. There were two house rulings worth sharing.

1) If anybody said anything during the hand, A would have been obliged to scale back to $100 max, and betting beyond that amount involving A would be void. After the hand was awarded, they would not strip A of the excess winnings.

2) Player A had to take the excess winnings off of the table, as opposed to quickly having a $400 stack, he had $200 on the table, and $200 in his pocket.

These both sound pretty standard to me.
