Just to clear up the showing of cards issue. It is different in different places (poker rules are far from standard) but the general rule in this situation is that any player, in the hand or not, may request to see any players cards (mucked). This doesn't happen very often becasue the grounds for doing this are based on collusion and its not sporting to do so, therefore hardly ever happens, however it can be requested.
Great job as always and thx for updates.
