Here's a question regarding a mis-deal during a no limit 7-stud game in a home poker tournament.
I originally posted this question in the 7-stud forum and got a response as to how cardrooms deal with my question. The response was helpful, but I am posting here to get the home game perspective.
It's heads-up on 5th street:
Player A has a spade and an 8 in the hole, with 3 spade upcards, one of which is the 8. Player B has KQ in the hole and J-9-10 showing.
Player A bets $3. Player B calls the $3 and raises $8 all-in.
Player A is thinking with the intention of calling.
**The dealer mis-deals at this point and deals Player A the A-spade with the raise not yet called.**
After much discussion, the decision was made to pull Player A's 6th street card and re-shuffle the deck.
Player A calls the all-in raise. The cards are dealt: Player A does not get a spade and Player B’s straight is good.
My question:
What is the "correct" procedure in a mis-deal like this? How have others dealt with this issue in home games and home tournaments?
