In Pham's spot, I think after deciding to chop I'd get up and leave, thus leaving the casino in a somewhat embarassing situation, and perhaps forcing them to come one step closer to reevaluating the rule.

I'm not sure what you mean about the "embarassing situation." Please elaborate.

As for reevaulating the rule, I doubt it will happen. California card players don't know how to behave and floormen presumably need rules like this to maintain a sense of leverage.

It'd apply more to a big tournament with onlookers. The casino would certainly be embarassed if one player essentially left in boycott, ruining the heads up portion of the tournament.
