    100% answer b
  • b.........
  • just like when a players card is exposed and it becomes the burn card the answer is B. Still remains the burn card
  • Thanks for clearing this up for me guys.
  • HIJACK:

    When the dealer deals a card off of the table onto the floor, that card is:

    a. still live and plays
    b. still live, but will become the exposed burn card
    c. dead (and therefore changes the flop)


    A boxed card found face-up in the deck:

    a. is live and plays where is comes out
    b. is live but will be treated as pre-exposed, whereever it may come out
    c. is dead

  • Agree with the moose, B C

    Had to say it that way so my post is long enough
  • 50% correct
  • As in most things in poker, the correct answer is
    IT DEPENDS!
    Every card room has different house rules. Robert's Rules are different from TDA rules, which are different from what every casino uses. I have seen loud arguments where one player insists that he knows the correct rule because it happened to him at Casino Rama, then the other player shouts back that he is 100% correct because he saw it at Niagara, then I inform them that IT DEPENDS on the house rule.

    In one casino, the correct answer is C. As a Supervisor, I would examine the card, then place it with the discards; it will not used be used in that round of play.

    In one casino, the correct answer is all of the above, depending on when the boxed card comes out. For example, if it is positioned to be a community card and has not been prematurely exposed, it will remain a community card and will still play in the hand.

    And when would it be dead? Would you not have to consider a boxed card exposed at any time as you cannot know for sure that no player has seen it while the dealer was dealing/handling chips/making change/etc...?

  • I never understood why the five community cards could not be dealt all at once to save some time; I understand the burn card is more for tradition and/or in case the top card gets exposed for some reason. But if all five cards are dealt at once, exposing the top card is no longer an issue. Just wondered what people thought of this issue. I have seen this done at a home game before and it seemed to work.

    What if the backs of the cards are marked? Now, someone might know what all of the cards are before each betting round...

    if the back of the cards are marked, then they probably know your cards as well; I guess that was the original intent. Good point.
  • plus if all 5 went down at once it kills the betting rounds and its more gambling then playing ur player.

    I think he means put tham all face down first and then just turn over each street as needed.
  • exactly; no change to betting rounds.
  • If the card comes out during the delivery of the first two cards to each player, I would treat it as an exposed card, and will become an exposed burn card. I know that Robert's Rules instead treats a boxed card as a scrap of paper. What is Fallsview Casino's house rule?

  • That is what I assumed 13Cards.....But if the cards are marked hopefully someone picks it up as I have only rarely seen marked cards in a casino. In a home game I've watched people mark cards or bend corners etc.

    Sounds like a friendly home game!
