EXAMPLE: "There was a lot of confusion in one game I was playing with a no money plays rule. The dealer was fairly new to the job and didn't really pay attention to the fact that one of the players was using cash. They had to call over a floor manager to sort the situation out when another player pointed out that it didn't play."
