That just seems really careless and I could imagine a less than 0% chance that those cards get accidentally mucked.
Which would be hilarious.
Whenever someone is sitting in the 1 or 9/10 seat and they have a huge stack, it is difficult to see if they have a hand or not from the other side of the table because their stack blocks their cards. Trooper puts a chip on top of his cards to protect his hand and moves it out in front so EVERYONE can see that he has cards.
I understand how this isn't necessary why you have a big bet in front of you but before he made that bet, it would very helpful if he keeps his cards with a chip on top out in front of him so everyone can see. The cards are touching the betting line and I think the intent is obvious when he has a chip on top of the cards. Dealers don't usually get tipped when people fold their hand so I would be surprised if a dealer mucked his hand if he was paying any attention at all.
I think Tim is lying through his teeth about his fabricated story on why he missed the vloggers' game. I think people who let their kids watch his channel are making horrible parenting decisions. And, I think that just because he is an "adult", doesn't mean that is an excuse to drink 37 coffees in a day or do other self destructive things. But, nit picking about his card placement in that hand is a bit much.
And that's coming from ME, of all people.
