Re: Dealer shafts me, whats my play?
[ QUOTE ]
I look down and min-raise (lol live play) in less than 10 seconds. When I look up, I see that the dealer has mucked the flop, and begun to start pushing the pot to UTG. I holler, and stop the dealer.

I simply cannot imagine how this is possible. No one has been able to explain it to me.
What happens during those "ten seconds"? Do you black out? Do you close your eyes? Do you focus so intently upon your chips, that you develop tunnel vision?
It takes you ten seconds to grab six red chips? If my chips were ROLLING, I could casually pick up six of them and bet them in far less than ten seconds.
One last thing: the situation that you describe doesn't happen to me often when I'm dealing--but every time that it does, it's because the blacked out/eyes closed/chip gathering/tunnel vision player IS CONCEALING HIS CARDS WITH HIS HANDS, and it looks like the bettor is the only player remaining.
