Re: A floor call I had never seen
Action has occured, in spite of our button not getting his wrong last card. We all know the button's not going to get the right one; concentrate next time, dealer. The correct flop/turn/river will come out if you give the button a fourth card ... so let's get it done and move on. If the player doesn't like the ruling, they can always fold their perfectly good hand.
Misdeal feels like the wrong ruling in spite of the fact that two players received the wrong cards. And a dead hand (because of dealer error) because the dealer didn't finish dealing cards out feels wrong as well ... but I can see the floor peeling off the top card to the button AND killing one/both hands to restore the flop/turn/river to its proper state and preserve the integrity of the "eight" good hands that were dealt.
Interesting example.
