It's true, and then this hand happened right after...

I would guess it is not true, if only because it is so similar to the T.J. Cloutier story I read in a magazine a couple months ago (that someone referred to earlier in the thread). It sounded like an urban legend then, and to hear it repeated with slight variation really confirms this impression.

sounds insane, TJ wrote a similar story in the back of one of his books about a man being dealt TT with both tens accounted for. when someone knocked the deck off the table the same ruling was given, and then tens won when they should have been drawing dead.

That poor soul was Al Krux, I believe this was in Bluff mag like a year ago if we're talking about the same story.
Seems kinda far fetched, esp. since the K was considered a burn since exposed and thus is dead. Wouldn't this somehow come into play, i.e. removing it and reshuffling? But then again, from my limited casino experience, the floor often makes retarded rulings so I dk...

1) The burn cards should have been under the pot and visible to the camera so they should have been able to pick the stub up without the burn and reshuffle it.

2) The dealer should have been able to hold the deck even if he was bumped.

3) Even if aces full of kings qualified for the bad beat the casino never would have awarded it. Security would have been called and seen that the deck was reshuffled.

4) If aces full of kings did qualify the dealer is fired on the spot.

i once saw dudes at commerce run it 3 times in a big pot - one guy was drawing to 3 outs and hit one each time.

This is sicker than the OP.

If the OP is the person that I think it is, I'm the one that told you this story.

Story sounds fake, but if it's true the dealer needs to find a new job.

Why? The dealer was bumped and dropped the deck. Even if he/she wasn't bumped it was an innocent mistake and an unforeseeable result occurred. So why blame the dealer unless you mean she needs to find a new job because someone connected will blame the dealer and management will unfortunately listen.

One thing I learned from this post is to never rule (if I again work the floor) is not to shuffle the burns. They aren't always perceived as random. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
