Poker Dry Side Pot Dishes

Created once a player is all in and other players continue betting 'on the side' (literally). The side pot is distinct from the main pot in that only the players still betting play for it, while. Dry pot (plural dry pots) ( poker ) An empty side pot created when a player is all in and is called by at least two other players, but not raised. If subsequent betting occurs, the money will go to the dry pot. The side pot money is sometimes referred to as “money on the outside.” If multiple players go all in for different amounts during the same hand, it will be necessary for the dealer to create multiple side pots. When this occurs, the dealer must remember which players are in for which pots. This can get confusing, so to help, the side pots. Sep 03, 2004 there is a big difference beween bluffing at a dry side pot and betting with a legit hand when there is a dry side pot. The former is annoying, the latter can be good poker.

Poker Dry Side Pot Roast

Ok now I never like it when people who make a stone cold bluff at a side pot and take me off a winning hand and the all-in player doubles up but I had the following hand in a MTT.
Nearing the bubble and I get 99 in MP. Folded to me and I minimum raise.
LP player calls all-in... SB and BB call.
Flop comes J92 all spades... Checked to me and I raise the size of the pot. My thinking is that SB and BB havn't hit the flush but they could be have a spade and draw out on me. If LP all-in player has flopped a flush then I'm behind however if he has no spades I have a good chance to pick this pot up.
Sure enough SB and BB fold... Spade hits the turn river is a blank and the LP player wins with a 8 spades.
Now one of the blinds goes ballistic saying I pushed him off the pot and he could have taken the all-in player out with his K spades.
I tried to explain my reason for betting but it was falling on deaf ears...
Should I have just checked it down in this position??? (I wonder if the player who was so irate at being pushed off the pot would have made a bet into the dry side pot with his K high flush when he hit it?)
