- I was in a.c. tuesday night for about 8 hrs, and the same thing happened to
- my roomate. Some dealer swiped his bet when he pushed, and we noticed and
- he put it back. He then neglected to pay one of my wins, thinking it was
- a push, but we caught it. Then he swiped my roomates bet again on a push
- and he realized it and asked how much he had down. He had $5 down, but he
- told the dealer he had $10 so the dealer gave him ten. I think the dealer
- was just tired and wasn't actually trying to rip us off. We avoided him
- for the rest of the night. I have had at least 20 different dealers before
- and none had ever done this before. This was at resorts btw.
