Were there special rules for that tourney? Or, heads up, is it okay to show your cards? |
I think one of the announcers mentioned that it was legal in that heads up tourney to show your cards. Normally it would be a penalty, from what I remember. And is ok in a cash game?
Occasionally a player in our games will show a card or two, but we make sure that they are heads up with the other person before they are allowed to do it. I did a little searching to find out not long ago since one person claimed it was an automatic fold if cards were shown, but I didn't think it was.
