Can anyone show me in roberts rules etc where the rule is for asking to see a mucked hand on the showdown?
Was playng in a card room on sunday and the hand went to the river showdown,
the boards had a pair on it (I beleive Jacks) & and the villian in position announced "2 pair"
This really irks me as I see it as nothing more than angle shooting and this player well knows what she was doing
Anyway hero turns over his hand and show like middle pair with a resigned look about him and villian mucks but just pushed them over the line
They never touched any other cards but were mucked,
Because announcing "2 pair" irks me I asked to see her hand, I wouldnt usually but it was just an angle by this player
anyway, floor end up being called and ruled that NO player has the right to ask to see that hand
I kind of laughed at such a stupid rule (he said it was a house rule) and left it at that,
but now thinking of it Id rather show the room where the rule is so they can correct their rules
The rule as I understand it and maybe i might be wrong but I remember any player can ask to see any mucked hand on the showdown (provided its retreivable etc) but it remains dead unless the person asking for it to be table is the opponent the the hand becomes live again?
(I was not in the hand but it just really irks me announcing 2 pair on a paired board hoping to get a muck from your opponent)
