So this older gentleman kept going all-in at least 8x last night out of turn, pretty much pissing off everyone, especially the people in the hand. this happened PF-F-T&R. I was about to suggest that he would be commited to the all-in if someone wanted to, otherwise, he would have to check or call any raise - basically removing all rights for the repeat offender.
Ultimately, we handled it by saying he was committed to his all-in, but no-one ever called / pushed and he took down those pots.
Is there a better way to handle this?
Is there a difference the way casino's handle it between tourneys and cash games?

Thanks,
Buckeye

Usually the first two or three times is a warning. After that its up to the casino as to how they handle it -- the most common way is the way you handled it, that is, if he says all-in out of turn he is considered all in. The other way is that ive heard (though never actually seen) some casinos fold the persons hands after repeated offenses. I wouldnt recommend this, as the people who do it tend to be very bad players, and you want them around.

So long story, just keep holding him to it.

TLR is an unknown quantity at this point
The best way is to have him commit to the action he announced out of turn

How about giving him a warning, and then if he persists give him a time penalty of something like 10 minutes?

Then you'd be keeping a big fish out of the game for 10 minutes. Bad Idea.
