Re: Cards live till literally touching the Muck?
The player called the last bet, so has a right to win the showdown if he has the best hand. His hand was not mucked, so he would probably be awarded the pot. (I don't know the specific rules at the Mirage)
As a dealer, they should immediatley muck the cards when they are folded face down and tossed towards them. But until they do so, the hand is retrievable.
