The best answer I have heard to this often asked questioned went something like this.

After the hand is over and before the next is dealt, lean into the player  (so that the rest of the table is not in on it) and tell him flat out- not that you can see his cards - but that HE IS SHOWING HIS CARDS to you when he looks at them.  Then tell him you will not mention it again and the rest is up to him.  Make him responsible for it, not you.

SIDE TRACK STORY
Had this happen at a bar game where we rotated the deal - there was one guy across from me that I could see every card he peeled off the deck.  I knew everyone's hand,  I announced MISDEAL and of course this halted the action and no one could figure out what happened.  I went around the table, starting to the left of the dealer, pointing at people and saying, "K of Spades - 6 of Clubs - A of Hearts - etc..."  And told everyone I knew what their cards where.  The dealer was pissed and so were his two buddies (Hmmmmmmm.....) like I was the bad guy - I said, "Fine, I won't bring it up again, but I will be looking."  He took more care after that.

But if the guy next to me doesn't take more care after I have warned him - I will look and I will use it.
