Professor Luske
The dealer did not immediately muck the hand. Luske and the dealer explained to the player that in order to be entitled to half the pot, he must open his hand, regardless of whether he's playing the board. A floor was summoned to the table who made the same ruling. Since Luske's opponent's cards were still clearly identifiable near the muck, the floor opened the hand.
The floor instructed the player that a future dealer may not be so kind as to not immediately kill the player's hand and to table his cards if he wants his share of the pot.

More Fabio Commentrary
"Guys, guys, you gotta come report on my table, this is ridiculous." he said in his Italian accent. "This guy raises to 400, I reraise to 1,200, and I get four callers! The flop comes down, one guy bets 3,000 and the next guy raises to 6,000! I just muck my aces, this is crazy, I don't know, one must have a set. On the turn, a guy bets 10,000 and the other calls then on the river the guy shoves all in and everyone folds. This is crazy!"
A few hands later, Fabio jumped up and yelled "All in!" after the dealer yelled it as well. He then went on a little rant about his table again. "I can't play with these guys, give me some pros, this is nuts. The blinds are 50, 100 and these guys make it 2,000! I don't know what to do, this is nuts!"
