It's not the double checking *during* a hand that puzzled me, but I swear they check their cards everytime after the hand is *over*, then they muck them. What is that all about?

It's a bad habit they picked up years before when they were low limit players. When another player reluctantly folds a hand instead of making a big call the winning player sometimes will look crushed, as if that just cost him a bunch of money, peek at his cards and sadly hand them back to the dealer.
This is the kind of stuff you online players are missing. LOL [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]
