Depends on the game, customs vary between tournaments, cash games, location and limits.

No. Players must not reveal their cards during a live hand unless a rule requires it.

A standard response is that any hand deliberately revealed when not permitted is dead. Further penalties can also be imposed.

  • Accidentally exposing live hands without permission, a warning and the opponent is not allowed to (re)raise. Nobody was ever daft enough to let it happen twice in a day. Deliberate exposure when not permitted? It never happened because players knew they'd be mucked. Not to mention the social stigma, let alone the chance of other formal penalties. – Nij Oct 15 '16 at 10:12

It is against the rules. You cannot even announce your card(s) when the hand is live.

What I have seen with inadvertent is they can only call or fold. They cannot bet out or raise.

To award the hand is extreme. It would be like a 1 orbit penalty.

There are dealers and floor men on this site that will hopefully weigh in.

In general it is against the rules ... I saw that at TV , not sure if it was EPT , but I think so , Hand was dead and penalty of 1 orbit .
