Pay Attention!

On Saturday I started on table 3 -$4-8 limit. About halfway through my down the 6s and the 3s go to war. The 6s was unknown to me but the 3s has been playing in our room for longer than I have dealt there. He used to play $2-4 but has recently "moved up" to $4-8. At the showdown the 6s exposed his hand and the 3s mucked face down. The 6s asked to see the 3s hand. I explained to the 6s that it was a live hand and that if the 3s had misread his hand and had the winner he would get the pot. The 6s still wanted to see it. I turned it over. The 3s asked me why I showed his cards?!?
Do you mean to tell me that you have been playing live poker in a Las Vegas casino for at least 2.5 years and you don't know about the "rule" pertaining to asking to see a called hand? Are you shitting me? I expect tourists to sometimes be ignorant about this "rule" but not local regulars. I doubt the possibility of playing for years and never having this situation arise at your table. Hyper-aware? I don't think so. Oblivious? Perhaps.


Later I am dealing a $2-5 blind NL game. The 2s leads out with a $50 bet. The 4s brings out a stack of chips and cuts out $90 without saying a word. I inform the 4s that he must make it a total of $100. The 6s (who had a hand) has a fit and says that the 4s can't raise because he didn't say raise and didn't bring out all $100 in one motion. IMO the 4s clearly intended to raise and since he was two chips short he had no choice but to add $10 to the $90. The floor said it was a raise to $100. The 6s folded. Do any of you work/play where this wouldn't have been handled in the same way?

Can anyone identify the make/model/year of the cars on Fremont Street in this picture? I'm trying to date the picture and I have no real clue. I'm guessing late 1960's. Any help would be appreciated.

**EDIT** My mother thinks that the T-Bird is a 1963. **END EDIT**

Yesterday another dealer and I were discussing the level of activity in our room. It was rather slow for an early Saturday evening. "It could be worse" he said, "Red Rock could be opening in 3 days."
