Default Who gets the pot? - ruling please

I think it's the player with the straight flushes responsibility to recognise his hand before mucking his cards, especially in a self taught game where there is no recourse through dealers/supervisors etc. Without having his cards in hand he could claim he had anything really, but without evidence to back it up, I don't see how he can get the pot. Even with other players on the table claiming it, they could have misread his cards too, again without the cards as evidence, I can't see him winning the pot.
