Re: the \"you win\" rule
[ QUOTE ]
I had this happen to me last month. I had been bluffing on all 3 streets. When my opponent called the river I said "You win" and tabled my Q high face up. He immediately claimed the pot and said that he did not have to show his hand. I did not believe him and invoked IWTSTH. So he is right? [/ QUOTE ] I don't think you're even really invoking IWTSTH by asking to see his hand here. You're insisting that his hand be tabled at showdown if he wishes to claim the pot. Also, villain is a douchebag and deserves a KITN for this. |

I said you win, couldn't imagine what he could call all my bets with that wouldn't beat A high with no kicker. Just prior to flinging my cards into the air flying towards the muck he tabled J7 of diamonds (one diamond on the whole board, one on the flop) and said "Thought I might make a hand", I just smiled and still folded my hand, first time in my life I have ever intentionally folded a winner but felt obligated to do so.

Where does the poster think A high beats a K Q J 10 9 straight? [/ QUOTE ] Y'all always look too closely at the details of these things. Just go with the spirit of the story and you'll be happier.

Re: the \"you win\" rule
You win rule not in effect at CP, at least not that I've ever seen. I often hear something to the effect of "if you can call, you win," or, "you got me, you win." The winning hand still must be shown unless the "you win" guy mucks. The dealer will not push the pot unless "you win" mucks or he is shown the winner.

[/ QUOTE ] I have never seen this as a dealer enforced rule, the floor needs to do it. I have been out of LA, so it has been a few years since I saw it enforced. |

I don't think I have ever actually seen this enforced but I know it's technically on the books in my room. [/ QUOTE ] I saw it enforced once at Commerce 9/16 against this angle shooting punk that did this incessantly. AB |

Re: the \"you win\" rule
I saw this enforced at the bike 5/10NL game when someone checked behind on the river and said you win tabling his missed nut flush draw. The other guy had a lower flush draw and asked for the pot even after showing his hand. THe floor gave the pot to the guy with the worst hand. I've also seen the rule not enforced.
