hi guys this happened to me in a tourney last sat. i was 1 before the button in a hand with one other guy he was 3 after the button. we were both betting till the river card, i had the nut straight with a 6on the turn. this river card came down he was first to act. he throws his cards over the line face up to show me he too had the 6. now i still had to go, this was a fold by him or not. the dealer said fold as he did it as did all the players. i pushed my cards over to the dealer and the guy kicked off saying he was showing the nuts. the boss came over and said because they were face up i could always raise him. the hand stood as i showed my hand and we split the pot. i say and all others that it was a fold but i cant find a ruling on this on the internet. ty:confused:

You can look up what various sets of rules say, but since anywhere can have its own house rules containing exceptions from "standard" rules, you'd have to see what this particular set of house rules says.
