Dealer did the correct thing here.

Consider this hypothetical brick-and-mortar sequence:
<ul type="square">[*]AKQJ10 shows down A [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 5 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], stating, "I have the nuts."
[*]Opponent mucks hand.
[*]AKQJ10 reaches into the middle of the table, pulls the pot to him, and starts stacking.
[*]Dealer says, "Post your blinds please" and deals the next hand.[/list]
Am I entitled to the pot? Is the dealer acting responsibly to let me pull it?
Also I missed whether the OP mentioned the house rules there, but keep in mind that house rules in Tunica don't necessary apply in every room. I've never known Foxwoods to enforce showing both cards, and I don't even understand the rationale for such a rule.
