If a guy behind me pushes the action in a showdown, do I have to turnover my cards?

At most live poker rooms you have to show your hand to win - but the losing player can muck their cards.
However it is very common now in live tournaments to require that all players who are involved in an all-in situation to turn their cards up at showdown. You don't get a choice and if you try to muck your hand the dealer will turn your cards face up.
