Arne Mews Loses Cards and Pot!

[user67765]

In a bizarre hand, amid some controversy, a pot was awarded to Eddie Kinzler when the cards of Arne Mews were accidentally mucked with action pending.

We believe that Mews had opened the action by moving all in. Kinzler then moved all in from the small blind but the dealer accidentally mucked the unprotected cards of Mews thinking that the hand was over.

The floor was called, and it was ruled that Mews had done nothing wrong and that the dealer was at fault. But since Mews didn't have any cards in front of him, his hand was dead. As he opened the action, he was penalized only the cost of the big blind rather than his entire stack, as Kinzler collected the pot in amazing circumstances!
