Check Those Suits

Bit of controversy. After the third draw in which Mimi Tran and an opponent just drew one, Tran's opponent spread out his hand -- 9-8-7-4-2, and Tran mucked before realizing her opponent had five spades.

They called for a ruling, and it was determined that since Tran had mucked her hand her opponent gets the pot. Gavin Griffin pointed out that the hand probably would have turned out differently if we were playing in Los Angeles, where one must announce if one has made a flush. One isn't obligated to make such announcements here, though.
