Dealer contributes to confusion... Floor please!

[UbinTook]

Its a check.
This happens fairly often and i always remind the players...do not use the word check in any context other than checking, phrase it differently if you are unsure of what is happening.
What happened?
What did he do?
Is it on me?
Who is it on?

THAT said, i see players flip hands before the LTA has acted at all, that player always gets to act as he chooses, and i tell the others that is is best/safest to always wait until i/the dealer ask to see the hands.
