This situation came up in a tournament recently. Two players in the hand, and the board played out AQJTx (the play before the river isn't particularly important for this question). Player A bets. Player B raises, and player A calls. They both turn over Kx for a chopped pot. One of the players at the table objected saying that player A should have reraised because he had the nuts and was last to act, thus deserving a penalty. Player A said that he realized that player B must have also had a king as well (neither player was a mouth-breathing moron), and so a reraise would have been a waste of time.
I thought that the rule about not checking the nuts on the river only applied when a player had the absolute nuts, not when the pot is likely to be chopped. So are both players expected to eventually go all-in in the above situation?
