Re: Is this bad etiquette?

Yeah, what is seat 3 doing showing his cards when there's still action?

This is so common in this and some other casinos that it's pathetic so I forgot to focus on it.
Quick Story:
A couple months ago I'm in a NL game watching a pot develop from seat 2. Pot is already big on the turn. Seat 3 is very deep and bets the pot. Seat 7 (also deep) puts in a big raise. Seat 9 goes in the tank for a bit. As he folds he stands up and clearly shows his cards to seat 7 before tossing them in the muck. Even though I'm not in the pot I call him on it (i.e., his horrific breach of etiquette) as it wasn't his first indiscretion. He's all over me calling me names and stuff.
Turns out seat 9 is an attorney who is deeply involved with launching a new poker magazine that has something to do with the formation of some kind of poker players association. I wonder who will be the etiquette expert [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img].
