    Default DEALER ADVICE NEEDED ASAP...

    Hi guys... so im playing live last week and its final game of the season.. I am currently sitting in 1st place in leader board with 410 points over 2nd with 370 points..

    so a beginner (my dads gf who i tought to play the basics, and kinda teaching her more advanced now..when i say advanced i mean pot odds/implied odds etc)

    So she is dealer for this hand...
    and she deals around to MP1 and acidently flips over the 5c...
    everyone says 'ok first burn card' ( for the flop, instead of burning 1 and turning over 3, we just turn over 3 straight out of the deck )..
    so im ok with this..

    im sitting with 12K. started from 3.5K...
    I get 77 on the Hijack position... and i raise 1.4K blinds are 200/400...
    and CO dealer(dads gf) goes all in with 2.7K. i call and she turns over AJ...
    flop is K Q 7... everyones calling for a 10 as they could catch up with me in points and go 1st to win it...

    sure enough a 10 comes on the turn...
    well here is my situation.. the card was burnt pre flop 5c..
    if that never happened... the cards would be completely different and i wouldnt be 2.7K down in my stack..

    do i complain and ask for a ruling of, MISS DEAL = RE-DEAL ??
    for future hands..

    oh and some guy went toilet and sat out AA lol
    Poker: Am I still gambling if I have the nuts?

    It depends. I look at it the same way i look at someones hand in the table at a craps game.

    The hand in the table doesn't change the odds of a 7out rolling. (7out means i lose all my money)... However, the hand did change the outcome of the dice roll, when the dice hit the hand.

    So I look at the burn card as not changing your odds of winning so much as simply changing the outcome. (perhaps your 7 would have been a burn card before turn is dealt)

    But requesting a redeal/ misdeal will give you more peace of mind.

    As stated doesnt change odds only outcome. But i would always call a misdeal whether or not it benefits me because the game should always be consistent.
