That's interesting to know, though.
I don't really have a problem with it as such. It's just given that some people who play in the LPL may one day want to play in a casino or such like and if they do that, their cards will be mucked and they'll lose the hand.

Likewise, if they were to throw their cards face up onto the muck pile. Even if they've got the absolute nuts, if their cards hit the muck pile before a winner has been clarified that hand is deemed dead and they would lose the pot.
