Default Re: Was this ruling good? (Bay101Live Tourney)

Nothing specified in the TDA rules, which some but not all places follow. There are a couple of issues at conflict here. First, it's a player's responsibility to call "time" and not let the play go past him. This happened at a table I was at during a Lucky Chances tourney and the director was very clear about this. However, in Roberts Rules of Poker it talks about retrieving cards from the muck if easily done and in the best interest of the game.

This is one of those tough calls and you can't really blame the TD for making one decision over the other.

i can't imagine him awarding a pot to a player who delayed and didn't speak up until the pot was pushed.
if the dealer pushes me a pot, and then they try to take it from me, they will have to pry it from my dead hands.
