so long as the cards were readily definable, that was a good ruling. I'm very surprised that they didn't call Sam over 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. If, however, the blinds simply acted out of turn and mucked, and you mucked when you saw the BB muck (but the dealer didn't push you the pot) then your hand is dead.

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.

BTW, I play those tourneys once in a while, maybe we'll see eachother there.
