Randy, TT, et al Please Help RE: Dealer Counting Pot Rule
Hi all. I have a friend who would like some sort of proof that there exists a rule that states the dealer is not allowed to count the pot in no limit hold em.
I have searched Robert's Rules of Poker, and a book titled The Rules of Poker by Lou Krieger, and have not been able to find this rule in either publication. I have also searched the sites cardplayer.com and seriouspoker.com, all to no avail. Can someone please verify that this rule does indeed exist? Also, if you can point me to a written publication with the rule stated, that would also help. Thank you very much in advance. |

Of coutrse the dealer counts the pot . . how else does he know how much rake to take? [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]
Look trying to cite an offical rule of poker is not really possible since there is no single body issuing official rules. I would say that the reason the dealer can not tell a player how much is in the pot is because of the one player to a hand rule. If your friend insists that the absence of an official rule that specifically states a dealer may not tell a player how much is in the pot means that the dealer can do this, then I assume he also will apply that logic to having the dealer tell a player who it was that raised in a prior betting round, or in a stud game what upcards have been folded. |

Also, if you could point to a thread discussing this topic on 2+2, I would be very grateful. I am apparently not very skilled in using the search feature, as I was not able to find one relevant thread about counting pots. Thank you again.

You apparently aren't very skilled at reading either.
