King of Slowrolls

On a turned board showing {2-Diamonds} {A-Diamonds} {3-Hearts} {A-Clubs}, a player moved all in, and Eric Haik called all in for his own tournament life. The aggressor showed up {J-Clubs} {J-Spades}, and Haik placed his cards in front of his all-in chips, face-down.

The dealer paused and turned over his hand, revealing {A-Hearts} {J-Hearts}. A meaningless {6-Diamonds} hit the river, and the losing player exploded in frustration. He was lobbying hard that Haik had mucked his hand by releasing it face-down.

A debate of at least 5 minutes ensued between the losing player and the floor person, and Tournament Director Matt Savage was called over to make the final ruling. He upheld the prior decision, awarding the pot to Haik. His explanation was a concise one: "Once you're heads up and all in, the cards must be exposed."

"But he mucked them!" argued the player.

The response to that challenge was simple as well: "They can not be mucked."

With his slowrolling win, Haik drags in a double up to move to about 65,000.
