Re: No flop, full drop???
I was playing at the Golden Nugget a few weeks back (1-2NL). I open the pot pre-flop for a small raise. All fold. Instead of tossing me the 3 bucks in blinds....they rake the 3 bucks and give me what's left. I say, WTF? (but in a more polite way)
BTW, 2+2 legend, Capone, was at my table when this happened.
Anyway, Dealer says they are just doing what they are told. I ask for the floor. Floor says, rake stands. WTF?
Oh well. I think that (raking the blinds pre-flop) is insane but the games there are often so donktastic, I have played there since. AND FWIW.......
Everytime this situation has come up since then (in my experience), the dealer has just tossed me the 3 bucks. So some dealers (most?) must think it's a stupid rule too (ala what used to be the case at Excalibur when I played there a lot years ago; pretty much the same situation).
Best Wishes
