But most dealers would just muck them and ignore a request to see them. A good dealer, I believe, would expose them on his own, telling the player, "Sir, if you show one player, you must show all."

No, they wouldn't. Correct me if I'm mistaken, but the gentleman made a bet that was uncalled and chose to show one card. In no way does that entitle someone to see his other card. This is FOR SURE not the rule in Atlantic City cardrooms and I don't believe it is common to have a show one, show both rule in the event of someone winning with an uncalled bet. Places that have this rule shouldn't, imo.

Trace back and you will see I am talking about a different story, where:

He shows his cards to the fat lady to his left.

and that I am talking about the nearly universal "Show one player, show all players" rule, not "Show one card, show both cards".
