A misdealt hand is a dead hand? So why don't they stop the game and shuffle when the 4th card out of the deck lands face up on the table?

Thats the title,but if you go back and read Crapshoots first post,thats what its actually about,it just takes a few twists and turns along the way.

And in no form of business is the employee fired for making a simple VERY common mistake.

Here is the question, are you ready?

Was what Crapshoot did to the dealer at the end of the tourny rude?

C'mon, at least one of you can answer the question... let's hear it
OK you might call it rude...but deservingly rude...my rudeness cost him nothing...but he cost me two raises...now I won the tournament anyway, but it could have just as easly cost me the tournament!

Wow, a light at the end of the tunnel. So you agree with me even through all of your bickering and name calling...

LOL...the opponents surely had to know that I had a strong hand after arguing my point...as I remember the hands going down just after the two incidents...they now knew that I had big hands (don't remember what they were) so I missed out on my raises plus playing the hands out...I hardly doubt that the incidents won the tournament for me...but rudeness is a way of life to be cast on those that deserve it!...I didn't hear any apologies out of the dealer he preferred to tell me that I checked...now I guess he was playing my game for me!!

I'll see if I can get his address and you then can send him a tip!

Fink I know that you are a good player...and I think that you mean well...it's just that you can get under the skin of people at times...this was actually fun for me as I am sure it was fun for you!

Get in the THF HU and you can have your treat taking me, Cat and gimme down!

By the way gimme is also a pro!

i agree with the finkster here, you making a scene at the payout was rude, and done with the intention of showing him up in front of people....i have no problem with not tipping, you obviously felt his service didnt warrant a tip

as for cat...you have obviously never worked in ther service profession... dealers provide a service, and are paid a lower wage because they are tipped... federal law says tipped employees are only gaurenteed $2.75 an hour. you want to pass a law that they make $10 an hour, or for good ones $50 an hour??? go ahead, it would be the death of the casino poker room....there is no way a casino is going to pay dealers 300% more without an increase in what is brought in, and a poker room can only make $4 a hand....you can fit a whole lot of slot machines in the same space, and not have to pay anyone. the poker room isnt ther to benefit someone who wants to play poker, they are there for the people who come to play a bit and drop a load in the slots or at the black jack table

now back to you crapshoot, you say a dealer put you on tilt by talking about his play....welldid you think there are 9 others at the table, and maybe they were interested in it, maybe asking questions about if he had dealt out te bad beat or hit it when heplayed?? He is doing his job by talking to the people, a dealer has to be an entertainer as well as a card flicker...speaking with the players puts forward a friendly face and make a player more comfortable, a more comfortable player is more likely to stay and spend more elsewhere... be sides that , if you go on tilt , its no ones fault but your own... tilting is a weakness, its a loss of self control. if you dont like something about the situation you are in, use common sense and get up and move to another table, or take a walk, but if you tilt, you did it to yourself
