    Hand 79: Allen Cunningham raises to $600,000 and is called by Doug Kim. Jamie Gold folds but shows A-T, which proves to be a disastrous laydown as the board comes K-Q-J. Cunningham shoots out a $500,000 bet and Kim lays down immediately.


    I thought you weren't allowed show your cards before the hand has finished as it means the players left know another 2 cards :confused:

    he did it (a) by accident. or (b) he really is the arse that everyone is saying he is

    it was an accident, the cards hit his stack as he was throwing them in

    From reading the summarised reports on CP, it seems like there's a huge amount of showing of hands when someone wins a pot.

    That's fine but the problem with this hand was only he folded and
    2 other players were awaitng a flop.

    It was pretty funny actually, gold really had to reach around his monster stack to fold his cards each time (maybe thats why he played so many hands!!), this time he hit his chips & the ace was exposed, dealer said he has to show it & he flipped them both over.
    I was quite surprised by the fold as he had been calling a lot of raises preflop with worse hands than A10, i suppose he was giving allen some respect.

    Gold especially showed a lot of hands at showdown when he wasnt called, mainly i think to show he wasnt bluffing, he played his stack well in fairness, he reraised a lot of flops & players were almost afriad tobet into him

    i would have thought it was normal but the more i think of it the weirder that is, surely you just expsoe the ace to let them know its gone it isnt like he was flashing cards.
