Default Re: How\'s this for a house rule??

In response to a couple of these. I agree my friend learned a valuable lesson, and I'm pretty sure I would have made sure such a large pot was coming my way before i turned to get the drink. But doesn't change the fact that it totally sucks, and the guy is a total creep who pulled this S***. My favourite part of the whole thing is that the casino didn't offer anything for their dealer's error. Finally, my friend asked if they would comp his buffet and they reluctanly agreed.

If you are talking about the guy with the flush, remember...

A. From your story, neither the dealer nor anybody at the table saw this Full House. Maybe your friend was mistaken.

B. I have a flush, I cannot see your hand, the dealer mucks your hand...I ain't giving you squat because you claim you had a Full House.

C. The Flush didn't "pull" anything. Your friend's complaint is with himself, the dealer, and the house.

D. I hope the buffet and the waitress was worth $500.

Nobody asked for a manager?
They have no cameras in this joint?
They have no gaming control board?
You settled a $500 pot for eggrolls and chicken wings?

I call BS

My friend had a full house of 10's full of 7's. Flopped the set of ten's and paired the board on the river. Definitley a bad suckout, but not the point of the post. The floor was called over and reiterated that it was the player's responsibility and not the dealer's to ensure the pot went to the proper player. The argument went on for a few minutes because the cards were face up on the table, they had been brought into a pile but not sent into the muck. I'm not sure I understand why they couldn't go to the cameras to determine how much was in the pot. Any ideas?

Gee. Small detail you didn't think was important in your original post.

Nice point. But not really.
The implication of the OP was that his friend's hand had been mucked by the dealer.

Yes the moral is, make sure the pots going your way, the waitress can wait , or tell her to put the drink down and come back for the cash in a minute when your of the hand.
Never turn your back when your still "in a hand"

It used to be, at the Plaza in LV, that a dealer who made a bad push made up the difference out of his pocket.

The ruling is correct. I have a feeling your friend will make this mistake again.
