simo_8ball 1 Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 AFAIK, technically if he mucked two cards he hasn't got a complete hand so even if he shows A3 his hand is dead.But yeah, if he mucked the 88 your hand wins. Link to post Share on other sites
Frez 0 Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 Ya, the cards speak when you turn your hand over for everyone to see. The muck is a cone of silence. Hero gets the pot. Link to post Share on other sites

I'm pretty sure you are forced to show both cards to win at showdown, regardless of whether you use both or not. Link to post Share on other sites
Frez 0 Posted August 18, 2008 Share Posted August 18, 2008 Yup, one of the things, in any game, that kills a hand is not having the correct number of cards in it. Especially if it has too many... Link to post Share on other sites
