WON\'T SHOW HAND AT SHOWDOWN
There's usually one in every game. At showdown, he turns up one card, expecting to get the pot. In this session, there are three of those types. One is on my left. -- "Turn up your cards" -- Time being wasted for hours, prompting them to show (winning) hands at showdown.
Then comes some real PAYBACK! It is last card action, between player on my left and another player. Opponent bets. Player on my left CALLS the bet, looks at his hand, and I can see his pocket Aces. There is one Ace ON THE FLOP ITSELF. Player on my left squeezes his cards and mucks. I asked, "Why did you muck"? Player responds, "He had two pair, I had pocket Aces". I said, "O.K.". |

Re: WON\'T SHOW HAND AT SHOWDOWN
Caesars tourney today... Two guys end up all-in preflop. Dealer says "turn 'em over, guys". They look at each other. "Let's see 'em" repeats the dealer. They look at each other. Finally one of 'em says "I called you."
JUMPIN' JAHOZAFAT, guys, could you be any nittier? You're both gonna show the cards before anything else happens so how can you possibly care who turns 'em over first? |

I've screamed at the TV more than a couple of times...it's a problem for me. |

Re: WON\'T SHOW HAND AT SHOWDOWN
X-Mas Eve (about 4AM-12PM) at the Morongo, this happens at the 1/2NL a few times. One dealer says during one of these staredown sessions "Someone turn over a whole hand or the hand's dead." He was greatly tipped.
