When one of the players goes all in a sidepot is created in order that other players can continue raising. If the one who went all in wins he doesn’t take this sidepot.
When standing in front of the Gold Spike Hotel and Casino, the first thought that comes to mind may be "Toto, I don’t think we’re in Caesars Palace anymore". Unlike the trendier places on the strip, the Gold Spike has no theme, no performing national acts, and no chance of a visit from the World Poker Tour. In fact, this 110 room facility looks like a Day’s Inn that somebody has carelessly dropped Mel’s Diner in front of. To many this would sound like a bad thing, but for those who long for the nostalgia days of Vegas, and shun the Disneyfication of the strip, this is the most authentic hotel around.
