Default Re: Is checking out \"unethical\"?

That's an effect of a legitimate action not an explanation of why the action is unethical.

The reason the dealer announces "check-out" is so everyone sees equally that the player took an illegitmate action. Note the player didn't "fold" (that not a choice here; he "checked" and threw his cards away.

then why do dealers also announce bets, callss, raises as well as how many people see each street? is it a question of legitimacy or merely controlling the game?
