Default Re: Two flops - right ruling?

You don't reconstruct the deck this way ever! The same as if 4 cards came out on the flop, it's a full shuffle and deal of the flop.

Really? I thought that dealing procedure had the cards placed and spread out in a certain way, so you COULD easily correct such a mistake without having to re-deal the flop?

Pull off the top three cards, turn them over, spread them in one direction... and the extra card is easy to identify and deal with as the turn's exposed burn card

Am I missing something?

Yep, you don't reconstruct the deck because now you know every card coming out instead of the just accidentaly exposed card type of thing during the initial deal. In the above situation, 3 cards are exposed that shouldn't be. That's turning one over and making it the burn card, the next is the turn, the next is the final burn. That's too many cards for the table to know. They aren't supposed to have information of any burn cards/upcoming turn or river cards. (obviously preflop dealt exposed cards is different).
