Default Re: Absolutely heated about JC Tran situation at Foxwoods

He CLEARLY mucks and then only wins the argument by lying. How on earth is this the correct ruling?

No he doesn't, he wins the ruling because the rules of tournament poker are that all cards must be exposed in an all-in showdown. You cannot muck in a tournament all-in what is so hard to comprehend about that?? Yes the guy handled himself less than gracefully by saying he tried to flip his cards, but that has NO bearing on the situation, those are the rules and playing the hand out and awarding the pot to the donk IS in the spirit of the game.
