The scene : a 30 players tournament, the final table, close to the bubble.
A player “A” is all-in with K-K, player “B” calls with A-7. The board is drawn, but the 3rd card of the flop (which is a 7) is burned and a 2 is drawned instead. 2 players not in the hand see that and say immediatly to the dealer that there is an error.
They switched the cards (burn the 2 and flip back the 7), draw the turn and the river… which was a third seven,making player “B” a trip of 7, and busting out player “A” of the tourney.
Of course, player “A” was very angry because of the dealer error and ask for the rule. I said that unfortunatly for him, 2 players out of the hand (and even a spectator) saw the dealer error, and that initially, the correct cards to draw was truly a 7 and not a deuce.
It was very painful, but I couldn’t change the board and he was busted out of the tourney.
Was I right ?

Hello,
Between two hands (this is important) can two players exchange information undercover (speaking low at theirs ears)?
Thanks,

Hello,
About “asking the clock” I have two questions:
1- Does a dealer can ask for the clock? (or only a player still in the hand or a floor?)
2- Is it 60 seconds PLUS 10 seconds warning (doing 1′10) or the 10 seconds warning are the last 10 seconds of the minute (doing 1′)?
Thanks for helping.
& thanks to ChocagoMike for his great job & allways answers “after thinking” (hard to translate this french expression lol)
GG

one night in our casino was a player who exposed his cards every time when was heads-up and his opponent was on all-in?
these was his way to see opponent:s rection on his cards.
what if opponent was thinking that HE(player who expose his cards) alled his bet, and turned his cards face up?
is there any rule about showing cards?
