Default Re: Cards Speak For Themselves

As everyone has said thus far, Cards speak for themselves.
However, if you muck before verifying their hand is infact what they say it was, too bad!

The only times cards dont always speak is in hi/lo dealers choice games where you have to declare high or low at the end of the hand.
You might have the best low hand, but think you are beat, but feel your high hand is good. You declare high and realize you are beat, but would have won low.

I play playing a game like that, and at the end I had the nut low (A-5) and had an A high flush. But in this particular game, a flush is only a winner maybe 25% of the time. The pot was big and decided to just take the low.
(if you declare both you MUST WIN BOTH to take the pot. If you declare both and only win one, you dont get anything.. thats how it is in our game, i dont like it, but I deal)

If cards just spoke for themselves in that game, I would have scooped it.
