Misdeal at the Legion

I missed the action week before last, but got a great story last Friday. The dealers at the American Legion tournament also play in the game. I have dealt several times, so obviously it is a little amaturish, though all the dealers are competent. When you deal you receive several benefits: $10 off your $40 entry fee, 3 free drink tickets, and a chance for a big tip at the final table (if you are the first dealer to request dealing it). The trouble started I think with the free drink tickets. The final table dealer had pounded down at least 3-4 beers when this situation came up. They were down to the final 3 players with one all-in in the big blind for $2000. The button, who is the chip leader, looks down at pocket aces so he reraises all in to isolate the big blind. When they turn over their cards, she has 4/6 offsuit. She walks away from the table over to the bar and the dealer, rather than running the board like he should, mucks her cards and awards the pot. Someone then calls for a discussion of the action and the decision is somehow made by "committee" that they will give everyone back their chips and redeal the hand. The big blind doubles up, doubles up again and again and ends up winning the tournament. The big stack was on tilt the entire time. The dealer? He ended up with a $10 tip because everyone was upset with him! Toooooo funny!!!
