An argument broke out at table 15. Actually, it's still going. One player called on the river and the other player mucked. The remaining player with cards didn't want to show them. The floor was called and it was rules that the player must show his cards, even though he was the last player remaining in the hand. A player not involved in the hand argued loudly for several minutes about this ruling, to no avail.
