Message: [QUOTE="lilpotato, post: 2994479, member: 148113"] Touching the muck does not automatically kill a hand (see TDA rule 14 below). Mucking a hand and not being able to clearly identify the cards mucked is the big problem. Cards can still be identified if they are touching the muck but are in most cases impossible to 100% identify if they have been pushed into the muck. In this video of a dealer at the WSOP accidentally pulls a players hand into the muck and the tournament director tries to 100% identify the cards even though they were pulled into the muck. In the end the tournament director could not identify the cards but an attempt was made.

Cards are killed by the dealer when pushed into the muck. [/QUOTE]
