Re: What is the correct ruling?
[ QUOTE ]
If the guy mucked the other card the dealer should have instantly perma-mucked it in an irretrieveable manner. This would eliminate any need for the floor. If his other card had not been mucked properly by the dealer then quite unfortunately his hand would still be live.

I'm going to disagree with you on this. I agree that the dealer should have made the cards irretrievable first, however i disagree that the failure to do so renders these cards live.
While facing a bet the player threw his cards towards the muck, with one of these face down, this is a fold, and even more so because it was done in such a way as to lead the otrher player into believeing it was a fold.
The hand is dead.
