Surprising Chips
Hi,
I was in a certain tournament the other week. Near end of the said tournament, after the flop, I placed $10,000 bet. Well, I was raised $30,000 more and so I called. Later, we revealed the cards. Luckily, I won the pot. I then started to count my chips and I’ve discovered I had $38,000 when I was raised. The player who lost said that I didn’t actually raise him all-in, which I know is true. Additionally, the remaining $8,000 could have been into the next round of bidding.
Obviously, the player who lost had so many questions in mind. He totally can’t believe everything.
In the end, we just both agreed that the extra $8,000 will go to him and the $30,000 raise to me. Any thoughts on this?
Thanks!

Koch,
Did your player move all-in or just call your bet? How did the rest of the hand unfold. If your opponent only had 30,000 more and you called, the game is over as you won. The 8,000 extra you had in your hand is irrelevant. Now if your opponent moved all-in and had you covered, and you discovered you had 8,000 more, then he owed you an extra 8,000.
He has no rights to your 8,000 chips there, especially since he lost the hand.
