This was on Tuesday...Sam's day off. Sometimes he's there playing at the cash tables (wasn't yesterday though).

...If the dealer pushed you the pot and you mucked and the cards were not readily definable, then the button forgoes any right to the pot by not speaking up...

That's exactly my point. However, I wasn't sure whether my cards being "readily definable" were reason enough to keep the hand live. I only mucked because I thought the hand was over since the dealer pushed me the pot. I wasn't acting out of turn. In fact, no one at the table even saw that button still had his cards, they were being covered by his hands.

All in all, given that it seems your cards were readily definable and you told the TD what you had and everyone agreed upon the action, then it seems like a very good ruling.

Being results oriented, I thought it was very a good ruling! [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] However, if that third diamond hit the board, I'd have probably have a different opinion.

Cool, see you there. Here's how you can recognize me...I'll be the asian guy yelling "Buffy, REBUY!" every third hand.
