Default Re: Proper handling of mucked cards after heads-up all-in

[ QUOTE ]
What's the proper procedure to follow if two folks are heads-up in a cash game, all-in, and one tries to muck his cards before the dealing is done? In a tourney, this isn't allowed--no chip dumping, and all that. But in a cash game?

So if a player gives up like this before the dealing is done in a cash game, should the dealer kill the cards immediately and not even finish the deal?

This would be my choice. Once the player mucks, the hand is over, and all of the cards should be gathered together into the muck, in preparation for the next shuffle. Indeed, having the dealer continue to deal would be akin to rabbit hunting.
