Default Re: Any rule on mucking 1 card only?

At some point, were you planning to look at your other card? Shouldn't you have done something before the river bet?

Naw, there was reason to. I seen the flop and went back to flurting with waitress and getting ready to eat and played blind on the turn and river. I was playing 3/6 after winning the nightly tournament. Just wanted to donk around a little while I had some free dinner.

Floor is called, hand is ruled live since significant action took place before anyone noticed I only had one card, I take the pot with one card...

Sounds like a home game rather than a legit casino. I hope you tipped the Floor big time.

Fort McDowell about 4 months ago, Wayne was the floor on shift, he made the ruling. And no I did not tip the floor, as it is against the law for them to take tips in AZ. No need to get a good floor man in trouble.

It was a valid ruling and a good one at that. What was he supposed to do? Declair my hand dead after I have bet and been called PF, flop, turn and river (well he made a crying call after the hand was ruled live)?

If anyone had a beef it should have been me, but I was just donking around at low limits while I had my comp'ed dinner having some fun. One guy at the table gave the other guy no end of [censored] for not being able to beat a guy with only one card and not even looking at the turn or river.

Ruling should have been your hand was dead. It is up to you to make sure you have the correct amount of cards. If you play with a fouled hand, it is your fault.


Now I am assuming "normal pokerroom rules" (ie Roberts Rules). Perhaps Fort McDowell has their own set of rules.

Why should you have a beef? Your turn pre-flop. Notice you have only one card. Tell the dealer before you act. Dealer gives you the top card, since he probably forgot to give you the last card (common mistake, especially if you are in Seat 1). Which will affect the flop, so there is a 2/3 chance that the flop will only contain one Ace, and the turn and river will be different. So the mistake (and the ruling) helped you.
