Default Who gets the pot? - ruling please

Personally, I don't like the rule, but cards must speak.Personally i think if you are not concentrating enough to know that you have the winning hand, then, as they say, lose sometimes...The only exception i can think of is if Player A says "full house", Player B mucks his cards without exposing them, THEN Player A exposes his cards, revealing something other than a full house. In that situation I would award the pot to Player A, but give Player A a time penalty. If Player A is reported to have done this again, INSTANT disqualification. - The only exception to this would be if "ialwayswinnomatterwhat" was involved in the pot, in which case he would win; no matter what.I think dealers in general are not forceful enough when making the player who must show first actually show first, and it can become quite frustrating for the rest of the players on the table. My two cents anyway.Great post Bushy, keep 'em coming.
