"...I will take the opportunity to talk about what I think is one of the most common and serious mistakes I see dealers make. It happens way too often that I see dealers try to take a shortcut when one player doubles through another by trying to "match stacks", rather than count the chips, even when there are lots of stacks to match. This should never-ever be done! It is hard to follow and even harder to correct mistakes, which are actually, in my oppinion, made more often than not when this is attempted. Too many times have I seen stacks matched and then rematched. The winners chips should always be counted out so all can see and then the pay-off should be counted out so all can see... Do not let a dealer do this at your table, let them know this is unprofesional and unacceptable."
Lee is absolutely correct here. Matching stacks is against procedure and is never acceptable.- Bill Bruce.
