An Argument Over Pot Splitting

[user22113]

Cyndy Violette raises in the cutoff and is called by the big blind and the button. The flop is {2-Diamonds}

and the big blind checks. Violette bets and the dealer raises. Both call. The turn is {J-Hearts}

. The big blind and Violette check, the button bets and all call. The river is {7-Clubs}

and the big blind checks. Violette bets and all call. Violette shows 5-8 for the straight, but the button has A-3 for low. The big blind mucks.

A big argument over pot splitting follows, as there's a 500 chip left over. Violette's opponent wants it split with the 100 chips into 300 for Violette and 200 for him. Violette wants it all. The floor rules that the 100 chips cannot be used to split pots during the Omaha round, so Violette gets the extra chip.
