Re: To correct, or not to correct, that is the question.
 

I don't correct pots after is entered a stack and the cards are reshuffeld.
Everybody could say "hey you was wrong" two hands later.

Yeah, once action started on the next hand, that hand should be dead as far as everyone is concerned. If it was my home game, I would sympathized with him, but I wlso would have explained why we can't correct it.

If you had corrected it, you might get a player argue, "I would have played the two hands afterward differently with the different chip stack sizes" and down the sippery slope you go.

I think you are correct, here. If any correction needed to be done, then it should have been done at the time the hand was being played. 3-hands later is too late.

Re: To correct, or not to correct, that is the question.
 

There are several reasons the play must stand - no changes now.

The stack sizes in the mean time could easily have affected play of intervening hands.

It slows down play - anyone at any time could explain "with remarkable accuracy" how a previous hand should have been different. It's sort of like going all in when the board shows the nuts. What have you got to lose? You MIGHT be rewarded some chips if no one else can remember exactly. So you might as well try it all night long.

It doesn't encourage people to pay attention before the hand is over, which is the only time you can actually see the chips and have a chance to correct the error at a point when no one can debate the facts. This is something that you have to encourage.

Re: To correct, or not to correct, that is the question.

ah, now I see... precedent, not president. Funny. I probably have misspelled it like that a hundred times. Thanks for the help on the poll, but more-so for the vocabulary/spelling lesson. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Re: To correct, or not to correct, that is the question.
 

Nope, same here, don't correct it after the next hand being startet.
