At the Horseshoe Cleveland it has come up many times and the floor has told players that, if they make a bet and get called and they muck their hand then the caller does not have to show their hand to win the pot.

I had a situation last year, player on the river makes a $150 bet into a $80 pot I knew he had nothing and was just trying to buy it so I called with top pair.

Villain "What ya got?"
Me    "I called you"
Villain "I got 2 pair, can you beat that?"
Me     "Maybe let me see it"
Villain mucks his hand.
Me mucked my hand
Villain "You have to show to win the pot!!"
Me     "Not here, you don't show I don't have to show"
Villain "Dealer he has to show!!"
Dealer "No once you muck you lose the right to see his cards"
Villain "FLOOR!!!!!"
Floor  "Whats up?"
Dealer explains what happened
Floor  "If you muck your hand then you lose the right to see his cards"
Villain "He said he could beat 2 pair, so he declared his hand has to show"
Floor  "Dealer did he declare?"
Dealer "No, he was asked if he could beat 2 pair, player responded with maybe  let me see the 2 pair, then player mucked his supposed 2 pair"
Floor  "I recommend just showing your cards then the other player will either show or muck"
Villain "That's bullshit"
Floor and Dealer " That's the rules here"
Me   "BTW I had Ace high"
Villain gets up and leaves.
