I don"t know the answer - but did play with a guy who made a micro raise into a sizable pot before passing out.

We refunded all the bets - but what would the correct action be here?

You could"ve rang NHS Direct, wait 3 hours for a nurse to ring back then declare the hand void.

Super marginal hand given the team dynamics - I guess the whole table dwelled with him.

Good memories which I had forgotten.

Paul Jackson told me that when he was in "That" hand with Phil Ivey, what the tv didn"t show was that Ivey dwelt for about 15 mins at the end.
Paul said "I wanted to call the clock but was scared to speak as my throat was so dry I thought I wouldn"t be able to!"
