Thanks for the quick responses everyone!
I honestly believe the dealer tried to do the right thing, but I disagree with his decision.
I thought, as most of you, that it should be ignored. But I especially do not agree with the players that had folded getting their money returned.
I said nothing, as it wasn't a very big deal, but I did think it was an interesting situation. And I definately would have handled it differently.
Above all else, I believe that the people involved in the hand should not be influencing the decision.
A situation that I see fairly often is when a mistake is made in the dealing of the cards, (i.e. tournament- player has paid for a seat but has not arrived. He has chips, and should be dealt a hand. But dealer omits dealing him a hand, and it is only noticed after some players have looked at their cards)
It seems that all-to-often the loudest player gets their way. They muck their 7-2 offsuit and demand a redeal.
At the very least, I ask for consistency.
