Re: Request for a ruling
A more interesting situation...
What if Player A does the same thing, then Player B says "Cool" and mucks, then starts raking the pot. Robert's Rules states: "Your hand is declared dead if you throw your hand away in a forward motion causing another player to act behind you (even if not facing a bet )." Does Player A's verbal "you got me" and his cards moving an inch forward constitute a fold, making his hand dead? I think it does.

Re: Request for a ruling
i had the same thing happen to me in a casino in londen.
i checkraise turn, opponent calls and we both check river. i show my top pair and he says ok, then he shows his cards while mucking to player next to him and he says: dude you have a straight. some players requested a ruling and floormen said "cards speak".

Re: Request for a ruling
"You got me" with pushing cards forward sounds like a concession. This action declares "I concede, you win."
[ QUOTE ] Player B shows a pair of aces and starts raking the pot in. [/ QUOTE ] It's player As responsibility to table his hand before the pot has been claimed. Player B gets the pot because Player A was a moron.

Conceding victory and pushing your cards in is a muck. [/ QUOTE ] I disagree, depending on any past history of angle-shooting.

[/ QUOTE ] No, but making a verbal declaration that causes an incorrect action behind you could make your hand dead. If Player B did not show his hand before mucking, then he is warned to table his hand in the future and not to let go of his cards until the pot is in his possession. Player A is warned that he might get ruled against in the future if he gets cutesy.
