Default Re: Straight flush mucked at 200nl Foxwoods?

[ QUOTE ]
Foxwoods heads up pot. I bet, person turns his cards up and throws them into the muck. The dealer asks him - do you fold? The dealer said he asked because his cards were face up.

It's an okay thread, but I really want to complicate it a bit more. Take the muppet out.

Let's say the villain tables his cards, (in the exact same way that was done on the night of infamy) and says "I had you..." Hero then shows his J10, believing that his bluff has been successful. Villain now pulls his cards back and wants to call.

Villain couldn't win pot? Does the presence of a muppet change the ruling? Or rather, does the talking change our perspective of what the correct ruling is?
