Dumbest attempted angleshot ever at Hollywood Park
Excellent 15/30 Saturday night. Two players are involved in this particular hand.
Player 1 checks, player 2 bets the river, player 1 calls. Player 2 shows a 6 in his hand, which matches a 6 on the board. Player 1 says, "That's good, take it," and mucks his hand. Player 2 then mucks his hand. At this point, Player 1 goes crazy and starts jammering loudly about how the pot now belongs to him because you have to show both cards to win. The floorman, who happened to be standing behind us as the action was going on, made the correct ruling in about 2 seconds. Also, I hate to say it, but I've noticed that these dumb "let's rely on the floorman to bail us out" angleshots tend to come from one specific group, and this was no exception.

Re: Dumbest attempted angleshot ever at Hollywood Park
Player 1 mucked his hand. That pretty much ends a claim to the pot, last I checked.
You didn't say what the floorman's actual ruling was. I am curious now. I can see either of two things happening. Did he award the pot to player 2 since the obvious intention was that player 1 conceded to him? Or did he rule it a dead hand and everyone take back their money since no hand was properly shown?

At the moment he said "that's good take it", the pot belongs to the other man regardless of what he had. If you say "you win" or "that's good", you lose.
