We have an issue at my weekly game that I could use some clarification on. If there are two people left, and one folds, on the table is only the flop, is there any rule as far as showing the turn and river card or shouldn't it be done. One side of the argument says it's up to the dealer and the other side says DON'T show the cards. TIA

House rule as to whether or not to allow rabbit hunts. If you want to allow rabbit hunts, that's fine, but you certainly don't have to show the turn and river if everyone folds to the bettor.

Personally, if someone who's folded wants to look at the turn and the river, I'd let them. If they don't know what the bettor has, the only purpose to seeing the turn and/or river is to goad oneself into making risky calls in the future. If someone wants to do that to themselves, I'm fine with it. However, if the other foldees have a problem with revealing the cards (I.E. they don't want to tempt themselves unnecessarily), then just don't show 'em and avoid the hassle of an argument. Rabbit hunts are technically irrelevant, afterall....
