I agree with whats been said so far, in a cash game you should keep your mouth shut but in a tournament once cards are at showdown the best hand should win no matter who points it out and the player shouldn"t get annoyed about it unless they want to cheat their way to victory IMO. Same goes with the incident where the wrong change was given - if the player in question had any ounce of intergrity then he should have immediately offered up the chips he was wrongly given, if he never then he"s no better than a cheat... again IMO.

Ship it to Glasgow ;D --- the Alea and the Mint could both match capacity
(the Alea could probably up the capacity a little with a little organisation).

Overall tournament was very well run ...
In terms of the individual scenarios flagged I would be interested in the official APAT view.
As a general point it would be really useful to have a quick APAT onsite briefing about the spirit the game should be played in and to clarify things with regards to best hand wins at showdown etc ...
Also interested in the official APAT view on the dealers/TDs and what you should do as a player if things are going wrong with dealers/rulings?
My take is with dealers be supportive/patient - ask for a TD quickly.
How mush guidance does APAT give to the TDs? There seemed to be a lot of variation on dealing practices and rulings.
I look forward to thoughts.

The dealer at my first table was not to great either (Table 10 i think), he was constantly giving the wrong change, pushing pots to losing players etc...
i say play in the circus next year. that was a nice place. better chips, better tables and able to fit 200 runners....the Apat mob who went down there would agree. About 20 or so of us i think...

one thing that really annoyed me was the dealer we got on table 7 after a wee while decided to flip my cards over after i mucked when opponent showed the winning hand after the river :/ first time it had happened on the table all day and i wasnt happy tbh.

I third this motion. MOTION PASSED LOL!!
Im gutted couldnt make scottish but saving all my money for Vegas, (BRAG). I think it is only right for a player to point out the winning hand if it is missed by the dealer, especialy if the hand is shown face up. But if the hand had been mucked it just bad luck!
Will see ya all at the worlds, cant wait!!
