Default Re: Very questionable floor decision at the Gold Strike

As I mentioned in one of my replies, I wish I wouldn't have posted the results of the hand in my original post. I know it is hard to overlook the results. This post is about the ruling, not the hand or the outcome.

I disagree. I think we both know that if AA had won this hand, this thread never happens.

...the point of my post is that I do not agree with the ruling. From your reply, "If money plays at that casino then it should stand" - well, that was not the case and that is what I have been arguing. If the floor would have ruled that way, then they both would have been all-in and the AA would have lost, but I would have been fine with the decision and this post never would have happened.

I believe that the preflop action should have been played out or allowed to play out differently. Yes, if the floor would have allowed the all-in my friend definitely would have called and he still would have lost the hand. My point, though, is that the floor stopped the action preflop before allowing any more betting. I believe that this was an error and should have been handled differently - there appears to be different opinions on how it should have been handled, but it definitely should have been handled differently.

I agree 100%. I don't understand the floors ruling at all. Either the money plays and it's all in or it doesn't and it's still all in for just the $15. Even though the ruling actually helped your friend (he didn't take advantage of it though) it was dumb and not well thought out.

Who better to comment than the man behind the Aces.Here's my take on the whole shebang.
1.Mr. Franklin was on the table for well over an hour,and even though I wanted to let her know it, she had made her decision and was gone before anyone could say anything.
2.Think what you will the floor practically played his AJ off for him,you can't deny she made his job very easy.
3.That weekend was a horrible run for me, made bearable only by the company of good friends.
