Default Re: Typical rule for dealer double-burn mistake?

[ QUOTE ]
This is a stupid rule. So long as a double-burn has revealed no information about the cards in the stub, it shouldn't matter--play on. Yes, it is true that as a deterministic question, the future turn and river cards have been "changed" from what they would have been but-for the double burn, but who cares? The error advantages no player. Rules like this are for tards who get bent out of shape requesting new setups, etc.

The reason you have to correct a double burn is it is possible that the dealer saw something about a card he didn't like and wanted to keep it off the board. ALl the rules about burning etc are to protect the integrity of the game.
