    Dealer error against another player

    I'm at my regular store and the guy next to me has a freebet coupon, for $15. He puts it in the circle to play it, and then decides to put 4 red chips on top of it for a total bet of $35. He's dealt a pair aces, puts up $35 more to split them. At this point he has a total of $55 in chips and a $15 freebet coupon in play. Dealer busts and announces that he'll just pay 2 stacks of $35 on the 2nd Ace. He does this, then takes the freebet coupon AND the $20 on top of it. So basically he paid the player $70 and took $20 away. Neither the dealer nor the player noticed that this was wrong, so I spoke up and said something about it. I tried telling him that he was supposed to take the coupon away, but not the chips on top of it. Both the player and the dealer were like "no that's right... Wait... Yea that's right". So I was like, oh well, and business continued as usual. Floor was never called over and never came over.

    Do you all usually speak up when the dealer makes a mistake against someone else? Ever have everyone except for you accept the mistake?

    If it is a situation that will affect me when I get it I always speak up. I want the game to flow smoothly when I am being paid. If the count is high I will try not to slow the game down for other peoples mistakes.

    Yes. You would be amazed how bad most people use options or pay attention to what is going on or have any clue about proper procedures. I guess you probably wouldn't be amazed but you know what I mean.

    Unless it somehow has a direct, immediate negative effect on me, I stay quiet and mind my own business.
