Re: Dealer\'s mistake, did I handle it right?
[ QUOTE ]
At the MGM playing $3-6 I'm holding AK UTG and raise. Two callers, one of which a very solid player that I could tell played often in the BB. She played very fast, and was good with the chips. Anyway, the flop is A 7 4 rainbow, and I bet at it. Next to act mucks and this is where it gets a little strange. The dealer drops the deck in the muck and starts to move the chips in my direction when the girl says that she still has cards. She wants the floor. Here are the options he gives: 1. Chop the pot or 2. Reshuffle all mucked cards and play the hand out if she wants to call the bet. I don't want to chop as I was fairly confident my AK was good. She is pissed that I don't want to chop, and reluctantly calls the bet. Result: Turn is a queen I bet she folds. I show my cards and the people sitting around me say I did the right thing, but I felt a little wierd afterwards. [/ QUOTE ] I'm a dealer and in my opinion you handled it just right. I deal a lot of 3/6 and even though it is a loose game, your still entitled to the pot. I dont think it's poor etiquette or ruins the atmosphere of the game. I think most players, even at 3/6, would do the same. at least from my experiences dealing. in regards to the other posts re: shuffling the muck and stub vs. chopping, I"ve had floor supervisors do both - chop the pot or shuffle the muck/stub. I personally am in favor of reshuffling, I dont think the player who is winning the hand should be forced to chop. |

If I had good hand in that situation, I would want to keep it light... no need to get upset, but I would not want to chop the pot. If I had a weak hand, sure I'd accept a chopped pot. I wouldn't make a big deal about that either though. |

Hold on a second, did you just put "serious mood" in the same context as 3/6? The best part about 3/6 is that I've never sat in a game that anybody was serious, usually the players are having a grand time. [/ QUOTE ] Guess you've never been to the Borgata. I've played 3/6 games ther where no one even says a word. To the OP, nothing wrong with what you did IMO, however if it was my first orbit or two around the table I might chop and show to make people there think I'm a pal. Good luck, Matt |
