Re: Floor ruling - who\'s fault is this?

yn,
So you are looking at your stack not doing anything for TEN SECONDS? And then, you are playing with your chips for ANOTHER TEN SECONDS? And you haven't said anything this whole time? And people are checking around the table. And you are surprised everyone assumed you checked? Pay attention next time and try to act faster.

After further thought on how much ten seconds really is, I do not think it took me this long. I thought about it for probbaly 3-5 seconds, and it took me probably 5-7 seconds to count out the bet in chips.
Basically the way I remembered it was I waited for the SB to check, then I thought for a second and looked at the other players (not ten seconds of this), then I looked down to count out the bet. While counting out the bet I heard the one check, and by the time I bet the tabled had checked around.
And also, I made absolutely no check motion, I said nothing, and the only thing I did with my hands was count out chips. Isn't it the dealers responsibility to determine whether I have checked or not? If there is ambiguity, shouldn't he ask me if I checked?
