No. The thread had surprising stayed on topic until you posted.

You're wrong, the Casinos and players you go to are just bad. If you are the bettor, and you get called, you have to show. PERIOD. In fact, if I called your bet I wont even show my hand until the bettor does. AND, if he doesn't want to show, then I will request the hand to be shown.

you are the player that the REAL casino players hate. Who cares what the other person has if you win? Its just such bad form to ask to see the losing hand noob. But I guess at 2-4 limit what do you expect.

What part of "It is standard to show your hand if called" don't some of you understand?Let me put this as delicate as possible.You bet river.Swedish guy with gay glasses calls.YOU GOTTA SHOW your putrid hand.NOW....If the Swedish guy with the gay glasses bets...and YOU CALL....You can wipe your *** with the cards and set them on fire.

Actually you are the complete idiot. A REAL poker player will realize the person asking is ALSO A GREAT PLAYER.When you CALL a BET, you've PAID TO SEE THE HAND.I too do not show until the other person shows.Now, I will VERY RARELY ask to see someone's hand if I am NOT in the hand. Unless I suspect collusion.Now, in this case, FORCE is an IDIOT. While not likely, he COULD have had the best hand. (yeah I know this is a longshot).Here's the thing, though... a COMPETANT dealer would SHOW his cards. And since the calling player asked to see, then FORCE'S CARDS ARE LIVE. The dealer SHOULD NOT KILL the hand.So instead, Force MUCKS his cards, which KILLS them. Then, the dealer SHOULD HAVE shown the cards.So what Force did was make it IMPOSSIBLE TO WIN, while still having to show his cards.He'd have been better off showing.That said, it was another example of totally incompetant dealers at the WSOP.And it also proves that 70% of you people on this board have NO IDEA HOW TO PLAY POKER. You guys will DIE when online is outlawed and you come to a real casino. I can't wait!

im pretty sure he had 9 high, it couldnt possibly have been the best hand once he got called
