Re: Am I out of line here?
Yes, Bobbo, you were way out of line. Don't do dat. Every player has to table his hand to make a claim for the pot and you can't help someone read their hand to decide whether or not to table it.
It's not so clear the floor ruling was correct. OP said the pocket tens guy "was in the process of mucking". If the guy had already placed his cards forward face down and the dealer just hadn't swept 'em, he doesn't get the pot at this stage. If he was still waving his cards around, he does get the pot. If he was heading forward with the cards face down 30 milliseconds from releasing 'em... well... floor just has to take a guess as to whether the player had given up and wouldn't have seen it on his own, but I think if he still has the cards in his hand he hasn't given up.
