Re: Dealer mucks winning hand but shoves him the pot anyway

soulvamp - as the others are pointing out, you are wrong.
Once the cards are tabled it is up to everyone to correct obvious dealer mistakes should they see one.
The A5 guy had no right to the pot and no justification to be upset at anyone for correcting the dealer.
You seem to play live often enough that I would think you should already know that.

What am I wrong about, Bob? I didn't take a stand on this, just posed the scenario.
If I'm A5 guy (which I wasn't), I'm muttering to myself about the table cops, who generally do annoy me almost as much as those idiots who can't keep their hands off their cell phones. But I'm not saying anything and am not going to disagree with the result. My general feeling here is that -- in a cash game, not a tournament, which is a different story -- if the guy loses out on the pot that was righfully his simply because he's too distracted by his damn cell phone, it serves him right.
