Default Re: Dealer calls time on player

[ QUOTE ]
Should the dealer really give him longer than 3-4 minutes before calling the floor on his own (if nobody else has done anything)?



I think other players are extremely reluctant to call time in such situations because it's not their hand.

But the dealer should be perfectly allowed to move the game along if the stalling has gone on long enough.

I agree. I mean, a world class athlete can run a whole freakin' mile in under 4 minutes....and this guy can't decide in this amount of time? Maybe the guy shouldn't be playing poker if it creates so much stress, anxiety and indecision.

BTW, if the bluffer would have won, would he still be pissed? Probably not. And the dealer would have been a super-duper guy.

I usually think the dealer posts on here point out the 1% pinheads the chose dealing poker as a profession, but in this case maybe not. He did what was best for the table whether it was within his authority or not. He can deal my game anytime.
