At my home games I have designated dealers for the tables. During one hand where there were two people. I was dealing at the time, and I was putting the bets into the pot after the turn came out. Player "A" bet and player "B" was thinking. I was putting the money in pot, when the deck in my hand caught the dealer tray and flipped a few cards onto the table. There were about five cards face up onto the table. I was not sure if they came off the top or from the middle. I am pretty sure they werent from the bottom since the cut card was still there, but since they were face up that definatley effects the hand. Im glad player B folded because I had no idea what to do. Whether to reshuffle or what. Resfhuffling was my first guess, but since the cards were exposed they knew some of the cards the were left in the deck for sure. So if anyone knows what this ruling would be I would definately aprreciate it.

I'll take a stab, but I really have no clue. Leave them out, face-up, burn a card, deal river. If it had happened before the turn, you would do the same but put them in the muck before the river card is dealt. I am probably so off on this.

I recall hearing about something similar before. I think you pick up the live deck and cards that fell and shuffle them. Burn one and deal the river.

17. If the deck stub gets fouled for some reason, such as the dealer believing the deal is over and dropping the deck, the deal must still be played out, and the deck reconstituted in as fair a way as possible.

See...told you I was way off. Does my fix apply to any faux-pa (sp?)?

All the seen cards should be announced followed by them being put back in the deck, reshuffled and then burn and turn. Then the damage is equal for all.

Yeah, that's what I've seen at casinos. Except when the "stub" is re-shuffled, mostly I see the next card(s) dealt directly, without a burn card.

I believe that's only if a burn card had already come out before an exposed card(s), such as if the dealer flips a community card before betting action had been completed.

I think you take the cards that were exposed and reshuffle with the remaining cards. Then burn one. Then flip the river. That is how we finished a hand in similar circumstances.
