Default Re: Intentionally tabling cards - exposing cards in a tournament

[ QUOTE ]
Taken from http://www.worldseriesofpoker.com/rules_JG.asp:

" A Participant may not show any cards during a hand. If a Participant shows a card to induce action, the hand may be ruled dead. "

I thought it was standard that exposing cards kills the hand since the WSOP does it.

[/ QUOTE ]

No it is not standard. In fact, (as one poster quoted above_), the TDA rules explicitly state that the hand is not dead. And in the example above showing the cards can not be to induce action since the other player is already all-in, so the rule you quote would not apply.

In fact I think the rule you quote has very limited aplicability, since exposing of cards is more often to get a read on a player than to induce action.
