I have been watching dvds about online poker and they mention if you click the hand histories it will show what a opponents mucked hands were... Well I tried this on pokerstars and when I do it live, if they muck them it just says player mucked.... Am I missing something??

I'm not sure how Poker Stars Hand History works, but I know there are meant to be some programs out there that will show you immediately what hand a player mucked at showdown as long as its not against the poker sites rules. Can't remember the names of the programs though.

you have to be dealt into the hand, not just observing the table.

I have been in the hand and won the pot and if the person mucked on instant hand history it still says "player mucked"

show us, take a screen shot

it has to go to showdown, or AFTER THE RIVER...if its not u wont see it

and u have to be IN THE GAME to see it, u may not see it if u just changed tables but thats only like one hand

......... because it didn't go to showdown, you won the pot uncontested. he has to call and muck a losing hand.
