Default Re: Hand retrieved from muck at Binions - bad ruling?

If it was the dealer's fault that the hand was incorrectly mucked, then no remedy less than retrieving the hand hand running it was acceptable. However, the declaration of what cards he was looking for should have been public. That way, if he names something someone else had, they could pipe up. Not a perfect defense, but better than what happened.

If it was the player's fault the hand was mucked then it's dead, and that's just life. Use a card protector.

Floor retrieves two nines from the muck and the hand is played out.

I would like you to clarify this statement a bit. How many cards did the floorman have to pick up beofre picking up the 2 nines.

He picked up the whole pile and looked through it. He then gave the hand to the player face down.

Please stop being a nit. It all evens out in the end.

Unfortunate this happened at Binion's. I've played many, many hours there and the dealers have always been on top of their game

Couldn't agree more. The fact I saw two live hands with all-in action mucked by two dealers in a week is freakish. I don't think there's anywhere in town with more experience at the tables.

Back off, Rainbow Britches. OP has a legitimate grump. I think he's probably fretting over it more than is healthy since there ain't nuthin' he can do about it now. But I think he got treated poorly by a well-intended floor. He gets to grouse about it and we get to commiserate

This is a very bad idea.
