I know that mis-deals should be avoided to the maximum extent possible, but what about the following:
1. Full table (10 players)
2. Button is on seat 2,
3. Seat 3 is SB and seat 4 is BB.
4. Seat 7 is absent.
5. Dealer skips seat 7 entirely, deals cards to only seats 1-6 and 8-10.
6. Before seat 5 can act (UTG), it is brought to the dealers attention that seat 7 did not get cards.
7. It is unknown whether any players have looked at their hole cards.
Question:
What is the correct resolution:
A. Seat 7 (which is a dead hand regardless) gets the top two cards off the deck, which would preserve the integrity of the flop, etc. OR
B. Dealer declares a mis-deal, OR
C. ?????

Chet,
Before substantial action...I call for a misdeal.
-
Ditto.
And after substantial action, play it out without changes. IE, don't kill cards to preserve the board.
-
First two answers are both completely correct.
