Re: Proper handling of mucked cards after heads-up all-in
[ QUOTE ]
How far forward did he toss the cards? Was it obvious that he was mucking them or just frustrated at seeing what his opponent had?

Not a doubt in the world he was tossing 'em in. Sure, he was frustrated his AJ had run into K4 (or whatever it was) on a J44 board, but the cards were out there almost even with the board. Sure seemed to me like that hand shoulda (okok... "should of" ...errrr, no wait... "should have") ended at that point. AJ had to reach far to grab 'em back and turn the cards over and he seriously waited a solid >5 seconds, probably closer to 10. Just kinda count to 5 and imagine the dealer staring at the guy for those 5 seconds. Then chatter starts from other players. Then it finally dawns on AJ, "golly I ended up with the winner" and he tentatively reaches out and flips 'em.
