Calmly talk to the floorman away from the table?

Showing your anger is not gonna help the dealer make less mistakes.

I guess whenever you make a mistake, you find it constructive for other people to be rudely critical but most human beings don’t operate like that.

No, when I make a mistake I take note of it and try my best NOT to repeat it again. I expect most human beings to operate like that. Possibly offer an apology as well. If you'd read my posts in their entirety you'd know that she'd misdealt a couple of others in addition to me, and I didn't even say anything the first time she fudged my deal.

Perhaps I should add that this happened in the Philippines, where a lot of people don't take much pride in the quality of their work - just looking to cruise by and take home their paychecks.

Why do you want to put your behavior aside? That's the only thing you can control.

You should always begin with a polite, direct request. "Can you please be more careful when pitching the cards?"

If that doesn't work, scale the request proportionally. Second request: "Can you PLEASE be more careful? I don't want to keep having to pick cards up off the floor." Third request: "Please be more careful, I'm calling the floor next time."

Jumping from silence to calling a supervisor should be reserved for egregious violations.

Awestruck by your magnanimity
I think I misunderstood your description. i thought she killed the off the table card and then dealt you the next card off the top of the deck after dealing all other cards, which is usually the standard.

If her actions caused a misdeal or caused your hand to be dead, I can see getting upset. if her actions just caused her to take maybe 5 to 10 seconds to address the situation before play could continue, I am curious as to what the hell is your problem.

Yeah that's on her, you being a dick about it is on you though and it's counterproductive both because if she's flustered she's more likely to make mistakes and if she takes offence she's more likely to 'accidentally' misdeal your cards.

Wrong and completely wrong. Generally it comes off floor gets inspected and goes on the board. Even in rooms where it is dead it does not go into the muck. If dead then treat like premature. That is pick it up. Burn and turn orig river as turn. The shuffle it back into stub and deal river without a burn.

Never shuffled back in?? I think the proper procedure would be to treat it like a boxed card like it never existed.

So you choose to lose 40% of the original board. Why would it not play?

This doesn't make any sense. If the card is dead, it's dead. You can't shuffle it back in. How does a dead card go into a live hand? If that was the case then it wouldn't be a dead card.

I know the rule would depend on house rules, but if a house rules a card dead, how can it be resurrected again into the same hand?
