Default Re: Dealer calls time on player

OK, so here's another hypothetical....

Suppose the next dealer in rotation pushes just after the shuffle, meaning this is the last hand for the present dealer. Now, during the course of the hand, one of the players goes into the tank for 5 minutes, throwing the whole rotation out of whack. Could the floor come up and put an end to the thinking?

Yikes.

I am sure the floor could -- and it may easily depend on what side of the bed the floorperson (and/or dealers) woke up.

Though I imagine the floor is just as (or more) likely to make the pushing dealer move to the table the in-place dealer is supposed to push, take an early break if the in-place dealer is breaking, or simply let the rotation be thrown out of whack.

This is funny stuff.

How in the world did you decide on "mile running times" as the standard of measurement?

Makes as much sense as using "Poker Tracker big bets" to measure NLHE performance, eh?
