How to Show One Card Only at PokerStars?
Answer: To show one card after folding at PokerStars, firstly ensure that the options to always muck cards are disabled, these options can be found from the lobby under Options > Showing / Mucking hands > “Muck loosing hands” should be off as should “Don’t show winning hand”, they should all be unticked. To show one card you can click on your card you wish to show and it will become enlarged with an eye on it, if you wish to show both your cards then click on both. For more information about showing one card at PokerStars see the images that follow below.

Mitt Romney, is a Mormon, in keeping with his religious line is expected to follow the Church of Latter Day Saints which bans gambling, alcohol and even coffee leaving us poker players with little chance of ever seeing online poker legalized in the USA with him in charge of the White House.
Newt Gingrich, while not making his stance on the legislation of online poker known as of yet has strong ties to Casino boss and online gaming opponent Sheldon Adelson who has contributed over $10 million to date to Republican Presidential candidate Newt Gingrich’s campaign.
Rick Santorum is another not in favor with online poker, he was quoted as saying: “I’m someone who takes the opinion that gaming is not something that is beneficial, particularly having that access on the internet. Just like we’ve seen from a lot of other things that are ‘vices,’ they tend to grow exponentially as a result of that. It’s one thing to come to Las Vegas and do gaming and participate in the shows and entertainment and that kind of thing. It’s another thing to be able to sit in your home and have access to that. I just think it would be dangerous for our country.”
Santorum went on to say: “There are certain things that do cost people a lot of money, cost them their lives, [and] cost them their fortunes that we shouldn’t have available. That’s why we regulate gaming. You have a big commission [in Nevada] that regulates gambling, for a reason. We don’t have it everywhere. I for one don’t think it’s a good thing. A lot of people don’t responsibly gamble and lose a lot and end up in not such great economic straits as a result of that.”
Ron Paul supports online poker legislation and has been a co-sponsor of several pro-online poker bills, including Congressman Joe Barton’s HR 2366, which sets up a framework to legalize and regulate internet poker in the United States. Paul is one of 27 co-sponsors of the bipartisan bill, which was introduced last June but has not found its way out of committee.
Ron Paul advocates freedom and the right for people to spend their hard earned money as they please.
