All in Blind

Does it exist? Doesn't the rules state that when a player is all-in, and is called, that they must turn over both cards?
I'm sick of these people that say "I'm playing blind" and won't turn their cards.
And I think different TD's have differing opinions.

It does indeed seem to depend who the TD is as to if you're turning over your cards right away or not.
I've found most of them will take the path of letting it be entertaining at least until after the turn, probably shouldn't be though

As far as I know, you have to show your cards. However with TD's able to bend the rules, some may let this rule go as it can make things a little more entertaining and doesn't really affect the outcome.
I do prefer to see the other persons cards as I can generally guess when the bad beat is going to hit lol

The question was "Is it part of the rules that you must turn over your cards for all-in?".
You can like to hide your cards all you like, but if it is in the rules then turn those suckers over.

Technically you can still turn your cards over and play blind ... The "blind" part comes from electing to bet with pokcet cards unseen.
I'm happy to play either way, and Im sure most punters would, as realistically it isn't going to affect the result.
