In the muck.
Obviously. I'm making a point. And it seems many are confusing the issue. I'll try and make it clearer, these are all DIFFERENT SCENARIOS:
1. I show my hand to a friend not at the poker table before throwing them in the muck.
2. I show my hand to a friend not at the poker table and continue in the hand.
3. I show my hand to a player not in the hand before throwing in the muck.
4. I show my hand to a player not in the hand and continue in the hand revealing my hand to the table when the hand ends.
5. I show my hand to a player not in the hand and they give advice.
6. I show my hand to a player still in the hand.
7. I show my hand to all players still in the hand.
Which of these are against the rules?
My thinking is: 5, 6 and 7. If 3 occurs rarely then it is okay, but if consistently should receive a penalty.
