Re: Dealer shafts me, whats my play?
 

When I have AJ, there are two more Aces on the board, and my opponent is trying to fold to my minraise, I always put them on a weaker Ace.

Stack your chips and move on. The other player mucked, so what else do you want?

QFT..

I'm still trying to figure out how you got shafted here?

Giving him the benefit of the doubt, maybe he felt that his opponent did have a weak Ace that might have paid him off, but his reaction to the dealer's mistake, not his clever min-check-raise, convinced the opponent to fold.

Isn't it obvious that the dealer's "innocent" brain freeze was in fact a malicious attempt to cheat OP out of a monster pot to which he was "entitled?" [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

For the floor people around here, I'm curious how you would've resolved the situation if you had shown up, action was still on UTG, and he had not relinquished his hand. I've seen floor people at Foxwoods deal with similar situations in a variety of creative ways recently...

Somebody starts calling for the floor, but I'm guessing any reasonable floor is going to order the pot chopped, and I feel entitled to the pot.

I'd get over the entitlement at this point. The UTG still has options. You're not entitled to anything at this point.

In the mess, before the floor arrived, UTG actually pushed his cards to the dealer.

Well, there you go. Situation seems to have resolved iteslf. If UTG had anything, he'd have held onto his cards.

With another responder, I'm not sure where I'm seeing you get shafted.

The fact that the old guy mucked his cards shows that he didn't have an ace

I look down and min-raise (lol live play) in less than 10 seconds. When I look up, I see that the dealer has mucked the flop, and begun to start pushing the pot to UTG. I holler, and stop the dealer.

I simply cannot imagine how this is possible. No one has been able to explain it to me.

What happens during those "ten seconds"? Do you black out? Do you close your eyes? Do you focus so intently upon your chips, that you develop tunnel vision?

It takes you ten seconds to grab six red chips? If my chips were ROLLING, I could casually pick up six of them and bet them in far less than ten seconds.

One last thing: the situation that you describe doesn't happen to me often when I'm dealing--but every time that it does, it's because the blacked out/eyes closed/chip gathering/tunnel vision player IS CONCEALING HIS CARDS WITH HIS HANDS, and it looks like the bettor is the only player remaining.
