It wasn't an emergency, but my mom left my front door open and my sister spotted it as she was driving by. I was trying to find out if someone could run and shut the door, before I had all my stuff stolen or otherwise I'd have to drive home and do it.

I feel I need to ask the obvious question here...why the heck couldn't your sister have done it?

We definitely need an answer to this.

His sister was on the city bus, because she is broke after her brother lost all her money stealing her identity to pay for his gambling addiction.

The Louisiana State Police don't make the laws. They enforce the laws.

Thats what I kept repeating for 10 to 15 years.

Where did this happen and who did this? Unless that's what TT edited out.

I did not edit that out.

I read the original post. Just don't tip the dealers. And calm down.

the fact that you open limped probably means that you should have just folded so ask for your money back and consider what the dealer did a favor

The reason for your phone call is quite irrelevant. Don't answer during a hand, or when you are about to be dealt in. Call them back, they can wait a minute or two.

I don't understand why you even call this a "ruling." Seems to me (if it happened exactly as you say) the dealer was being rather obtuse, but a ruling can only be issued by a floorperson. Your move was to let the floor decide your fate. Obviously your hand was either live or dead before you put in the $5. If you didn't ask for the floor, then it's your fault twice now.

Actually you are wrong. The reason for the phone call tells us something. He deserved this. After all what kind of person gets a phone call about a family emergency and says wait I'll call you back after I play poker (especially since this was a new hand starting its not even like he was already invested in the hand).
