Title: Nuts On Board
Post by: AdamM on March 17, 2016, 08:35:21 PM
Blinds 50/100
Mid-position makes it 200
I flat on the Button
SB makes it 400
Opener flats
I flat

Flop, turn and river all check round, as rainbow Broadway straight is dealt on the board.
On the river it checks round, dealer sighs and call floor unprompted by any players because I have checked the nuts on the river.

Surely not allowing checking the nuts on the river is an anti-collusion rule.

Apparently, even though we ALL have the nuts, I still have to bet it because one of the other players s may not have seen the board was the nuts.

What if I haven't seen its the nuts?
I should be paying more attention.
But other players who may fold the nuts not paying attention are not penalised.

TD bizarrely allows me to now bet 500
SB calls
Mid position almost called the 500 but realised he's be penalised, so loves all in
So do I
So does SB

We all get our chips back exactly as we would have done 10 minutes earlier if common sense had been applied.

Yup that's a completely moronic ruling

He should have asked the dealer what the min raise was, pondered, then min raised.  Then you call and the SB ponders and then asks him how much is it to min raise.

Just before the first of you is allin I'd ask the dealer if it's sinking in yet.

Absolute nonsense.

Feel like he's done the "right thing" the dealer as he should report that but he obviously doesn't understand why it's important he reports things like this.

Cant really blame him for that,  the TD though was either just trolling you all or is an idiot. No real excuse for either really although I defo know a few guys who would troll in that spot and it can be quite funny depending who is at the table :-p

It's what happens when you give someone with zero imagination a set of rules to follow

I assumed it was a cash-game and the rake hadn't been capped.

If its a cash game you will still be made to bet in some places. I asked the floor about this @ EPT Dublin. I think they have the ability to apply common sense down the streets but its weird this rule still exists. ANother example of an anticollusion rule completely failing and being upheld in perpetuity
