IMO the strangest thing about this is the floor's justification for giving him the pot - nothing that happened on the turn matters, I don't know why they'd even bring it up?

It doesn't matter that the amount he put out on the turn was more than 50%* above your raise - he can put out 99% of your raise on top, but unless he's put out at least enough for a FULL raise then it'll correctly just be deemed a call and he'll be given back the remainder.  The dealer did everything right on that street, so I can't see why it would come up again.

Obviously if you hadn't have exposed your hand on the river you would have been awarded the pot.  And IMO they should still have awarded you the pot.  [B]I mean, can anyone tell me: how is this different to showing a bluff after an opponent has folded to your river bet?[/B]

There are rules that allow your opponent's hand to be retrieved from the muck and "unfolded", but that's generally only in the case of dealer error, or if they player mucked their hand as a result of incorrect information being given to them.  The dealer didn't make any mistakes in this hand that I can see, and your opponent wasn't given any incorrect information.

[I]* the "more than 50% rule" applies only to limit games, IIRC[/I]
