Here's the scenario... Player 1 defeats a monster and combat is declared over by the table. Player 1 is in the act of taking treasure cards from the deck with one hand, laying them in the other, when Player 4 plays Trojan Horse with the intention of depriving Player 1 of this treasure. Player 1 reads the card for clarification, Player 1 points out that the card must be played prior to the drawing, and that Player 4 hadn't played the card in time. Pandemonium ensues.
Player 4 POV: The Trojan Horse card was "being played" (being laid down) prior to Player 1 drawing from the deck of treasure cards, so Player 1 doesn't get them. When all players are aware of the card that was played, and Player 1 was notified of the effects of the card, doesn't matter.
[Player 1 POV:Trojan Horse clearly states that the card is played "when someone is about to draw treasure cards". (The word "about" is actually italicized on the card, emphasising that it can't be played while the treasure is being drawn, or after.) When Trojan Horse was face up on the table, viewable by all players besides the one playing it, Player 1 already had some, but not all, of the treasure cards in his hand. Therefore, the card wasn't in play when Player 1 was "about to" draw, but while he was drawing.
Thoughts???
