Re: Dealer says \"check\" but the player never checked
[ QUOTE ]
Maybe he did see something. Its not all that unusual for a guy shuffling chips to make a tapping motion that can be construed by the dealer as a check. Since you didn't see maybe it was a player mistake and not a dealer mistake.

Something else that can happen is the dealer sees a checking motion, announces the check and puts it out of their mind. Floor is called because the player says he didn't check and the dealer doesn't remember what checking motion he saw (he sees a lot of these over the course of a shift and has no real reason to remember THIS one), so the player that DID check gets to bet. As a player I don't know a good way to protect yourself against this angle shot when you don't have an unobstructed view, but if it ever happens a second time with a player I would make a point of finding out what he is doing.
