Default Re: When should the dealer push the chips to the winning player

[ QUOTE ]
At what point in pushing pot, scooping board, and washing deck did your tongue fall out of your head and your arms fall off your torso and the rest of your body become completely immobile? [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

This is how the action went on the river.

I turn over my hand and declare k high (Mistake on my part), The woman declares a pair of fours (at this point the dealer has already started to push her the pot). The woman turns over her cards. I am looking at her hand 94s in disbeleef. I look up at the board and the dealer has just scooped the board I ask him to relay out the board.

It sounds like you did what you needed to do to protect your hand but the dealer started pushing her the chips as soon as she announced her pair of 4's. He should have waited until she tabled them. Your misread didn't help things but the dealer is supposed to wait until he sees the winning hand tabled or all other hands mucked before he pushes the pot.
