Live MTT at a casino. Folded to me on the button. I'm in seat 10. I pull my cards to the rail (AA). 3000/1500/500. Folded to me on the button. I announce raise and push 8k. About 3 seconds later the dealer wakes up from her day dream, reaches in front of me and pulls the cards into the muck. What is the correct ruling?

You're hand is dead you lose the 8k. If in another example you were 3 betting a open and this happened i would say you lose the amount of the original open but get back the raise amount. Oh and protect your cards.
