Default Re: Big Pot Heads Up - Dealer Mucks Opponents Cards - Horrible Ruling.

First of all, I wouldn't be that upset about winning the hand there. If villain had KhKx, he had 11 outs, so you might have lost a huge pot.

Villain is at fault for not protecting his hand. Villain is probably inexperienced. Dealer is also at fault for mucking hand in the middle of a huge hand. This is a pretty big error. Sometimes, when other players have folded to a big raise, dealer thinks player still in hand has folded too. Seems like floor made right decision.

Caesers AC has a relatively new poker room. I was there once to play in their tournament. Their tournament had the ante as half the SB and the blinds usually doubling every level. It was common to have 3 players allin preflop. Obviously, they wanted people out of it quickly and back to raked poker or other casino games.

I played some of the 1/2NL, which was very soft even for 1/2NL. They probably only have 2/5NL on peak times on weekends. The 2/5NL game may also be soft. However, if you want to play 2/5NL or above, it is better to go to Borgata or Tropicana, where things are probably more professionally run, and they generally have multiple 2/5 and higher tables.
