I want to throw a wrench in the works....

Tournament Scenario:
-------------------

Two players heads-up in a pot. The flop is out. Player A shoves ALL IN. Player B goes into the tank. Player A gets up from his seat (which he is allowed to do) and walks over to the railbirds (which he is allowed to do). Player B takes so long to decided, Player A yells back to the table "I'm going to the bathroom. Let me know if I win." and walks out of the tournament area.

Player B now announces "I call.".

Who should turn over Player A's cards? The dealer? The Floor? Another player? No one?

this dude at the bike always used to shove all in and immeadiately go outside for a smoke.. we were all freindly about it but i'm pretty sure if you were a nit or an angle shooter you could call the clock on him at showdown and get his hand killed.

No one was comparing the two. Earlier in the thread, it was mentioned repeatedly that the rules differ between donkaments and cash games. My story was to provide evidence that, at Foxwoods at least, that is not the case.

This happened once in my local casino (right down to going to the bathroom). The guy who walked out had his hand killed. I felt that this was entirely the correct ruling, because a short while before that I caught him peeking over my shoulder at my cards.

He CLEARLY mucks and then only wins the argument by lying. How on earth is this the correct ruling?

The rule is in place to avoid collusion. The dealer and the floor made the correct ruling according to the tournament guidelines. However, it is the rule that is in question, not the floor's decision, at this point.
