Yet another Floor Decision question (the magic muck)

The very next hand ... you wouldn't believe it ... the exact same thing happens!

Dispense KsITN as follows:
- All three players for doing the same dumb things two hands in a row
- The dealer, for twice failing to say (to the all-in at showdown) "One moment please, sir, side pot first"
- The floor, for not pointing out after the first time around that side pots show down first.

The floor's is a gentle one, though, for applying the same bad house rule the same way in both cases. Otherwise, though, you're putting out a hypothetical non-issue. The floor shouldn't prevent the two from splitting the side pot, but can't require them to split it, either. C is SOL. (Normally we might suppose he learns a lesson for next time, but these players clearly won't be learning anything.)

1. If you were Charlie, what would you say (or do) next?

I'd stop being an idiot.

2. If you were the floorman, how would you justify what was going on?

[/ QUOTE ]

I'd say that we have a magic muck, a precedent was set with the exact same players only a few minutes before, nobody should be surprised at anything. The chop was a player-induced agreement, not house-enforced.

Question 2: If you're the floor, and the players agree to a deal that overrides your decision, do you let them?
