Yeah I remember arguing confidently with someone about that rule thinking first from the button showed first, but apparently OPs rule applied. I completely forget where it was though. Possibly the Borgata.

Gotta say it was the best post of the thread.

Arguing with old ladies about the order cards are shown, in a hand you're not in makes baby Sklansky cry.

Well, let's not forget that the guy who didn't want to show was keeping magical information secret. Surely had he shown first, the fabric of space and time would have started to crumble and we'd all be left weeping in the dark. Thank goodness OP was there to prevent this!

Sorry, these silly showdown standoffs just make me laugh. Regardless of who shows first, it's generally widely accepted everywhere that if you think you have a winner, table the darn thing. You're not as good or special as you think you are. Everybody else wants to move on to the next hand.

OP, you've made 4300 posts in 2 and a half years and can't see why you should've stayed out of it? You have no right to go telling someone not to turn his effing hand over. Quit acting like a child.

but i wasnt wrong... it differs between cardroom as you can see from other responses in the post, as well as different online sites having different rules as well.


floor said i was right so guess what i was right.


and to those saying i shouldnt have spoke up, why not. when i am in the hand and it is about to be played out the way where closest to button shows first and thats me and i dont want to then it will just slow the game down more. i lef the table to discuss it with the floor to not slow teh game down. guess i a sematics nit but def not wrong by any means to want the game to play out properly IMO. if you disagree then i respect your opinion.

The truly disturbing part of this whole thread is that nobody has commented on the fact that the FLOOR apparently agreed with the OP and the dealer told the floor where to go.... [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

You weren't in the hand. Guess what, if people are old enough and responsible enough to gamble, they can be responsible enough to decide if they want to show their hand or not. If you're feeling nice you can inform him of the rule (as you see it) once the hands over.

the FLOOR at Foxwoods are mostly former dealers. They don't know what the ruling is either, because the ruling is always in flux. It depends on who is the floor in your area and what he thinks is the ruling.
