Default Re: Dealer mucks winning hand but shoves him the pot anyway

It's hard enough sometimes to keep a player in a game when he thinks he's out-skilled.

Throw in the possibility of shady behavior and watch your game dry up real fast. Making it every players responsibility to ensure that the player who shows down the best hand is awarded the pot also prevents dealers from stealing pots from tourists and awarding them to pals.

If you don't see why this is a good thing you have to be a short sighted selfish jerk totally focused on immediate gratification.
