Default Re: B & M Dealer Confessions Thread

Once you are the floor and have to clean up the messes from dealer's mistakes, you won't make those mistakes yourself anymore. I've of course made many mistakes but since I was dual rate, then full time floor so early I cleaned up most of the major mistakes before I had a chance to make them myself.

Many of the small habits I've developed over time keep me from making mistakes. Example: always do a double take left and right when you tap the table before the next street. This virtually always prevents early burn and turn.

Incidentally, and I know we've discussed this before, the very hardest floor decisions almost always have these three things in common:

1. No limit

2. Alcohol

3. Dealer error.

It is entirely possible that these three things may produce a floor call that's a real kick in the nuts.
