The third player would have to match the all-in bet and the side bet in this scenario. In effect the second player is overbetting for one of two reasons:
1) he has the "nut" hand which can't be beaten or close to it.
2) or more likely he doesn't want anyone else betting (often because he has a marginal hand and is card catching) |

What if the third player going all in is less than the bet to him. Can he
go all in or does he have to fold? |

ok lets recap:
Player 1 goes allin for 200
Player 2 bets 500 (side pot 300)
Player 3 has a choice to call 500 or fold.
If player 3 only has 400 he has the choice to go allin for 400 or fold.
[b:f10c7b2bd3]If player 1 wins[/b:f10c7b2bd3] the payout is 600 to player 1, best hand of player 2 and 3 receive 400 (remember player 3 only had 400 and lost 200 to player 1). Player 2 receives 100 back if he loses to both, or 500 if he beats 3.
[b:f10c7b2bd3]If player 2 wins[/b:f10c7b2bd3] the payout is player 1 zero and out, player 2 wins 1100, player 3 zero and out.
[b:f10c7b2bd3]If player 3 wins[/b:f10c7b2bd3] the payout would be player 1 zero and out, player 2 gets back 100, player 3 wins 1000. |
