Default Re: me vs dealer at wynn

Very few things upset me when I'm playing cards, but this would definitely do it. It sounds like it was completely obvious that you were getting settled and hadn't even touched your cards yet. I'm not sure if the dealer made a mistake and tried to cover with the “protect your hand” line, or if he was just being an ass.

I've seen peoples hands get killed when they hadn't looked yet, but the action is almost always actually on the person when the hand gets scooped up. Of course in these cases the person is eating, talking to someone behind them, or otherwise distracted, and the dealer is assuming they already looked and are just passing. Mucking the BB before the action has passed UTG is ridiculous.
