From espn's poker section, reporting on the WSOP ME:

"A dealer called clock on a player as they were heading to the dinner break. Can they do that? No. The tournament director overruled the clock call and let the player have all the time he wanted."


Skip dinner, find dealer, KITN, then KITN again.

1. Summarily fire the dealer.
2. Bitch and moan next year that Harrah's has so many first-time dealers dealing the WSOP.

A dealer at commerce called clock on me after 30secons when not a singly player asked for an allin decision. Needless to say, she has not received a tip from me in years.

Let's say the dinner break has been announced.
All but the two players involved in the hand have left.
HRD has been taking tons of time on every hand prior to this.
HRD now is taking a very long time facing a small bet.
Maybe his opponent does not know about calling for the clock or does not want to give information on his hand (yadda yadda).

Okay, the dealer crossed the line. But there is so much left out of the report to make an informed decision.

Have a straw replica of my foot made by an expoit basket weaver. Put an old, unexploded WWII bomb inside the foot. Mount the foot and bomb onto a large pendulum. Swing very fast towards nuts of dealer. Laugh and share a small anecdote about the weather with a friend while eating crumpets and drinking tea and watching the whole thing live on ESPN.

No need to do anything.

Dealer was wrong. Floor corrected it (hopefully dealer has learned). No one was injured by it. Move on get over it.
