We're playing home game with friends and I have one question about showdown on river.
Let's take and example there are only two players (player A and B) in the pot...the river card opens.
1) Player A bets, player B calls - who must show the cards first?
2) Player A checks, player B bets, player A calls - ?
3) Player A bets, player B raises, player A calls - ?
The question is - who shows the cards first - the one who last calls or the one who last bets?
Tnx in advance.
i think it is either the person who bets first at the river or turn or whenever except someone raises him than the person that raised has to show first.
Simply the last person that bet or raised
We usually play so that if river is without action the one next from the button shows first.
If however the first to act calls a raise then the raiser shows first.
The person who has been called. If there was no action on the river, then its first after the Button as far as I know.
also my friends said if u were in small/big blind and went to showdown you have to show your hand? wtf?
Usually i believe that the last aggressor in the hand has to show first.
Say you raise and get called and flop, turn and river get checked down then you should show first, irregardless of your position 
This is cash game rules that i believe are in operation on PokerStars!
Good luck and best regards,

so that means the first to show is:
1) player A
2) player B
3) player B
What if (to check if I got it right):
Player A (co) ,B (bu) in the pot and flop goes check, check,
turn goes check, bet (player B), call
river goes check, check
Playe B has to show first, right?
I forgot to mention it because I think it's not important but we play sng format. It's just for fun and there are no conflicts when anybody loses big pot.
One more thing...about blind structure - when do you increase them? I think 30 min is more than enough. We start with 150bb (it's not too deep but since there are always 8+ players and live play is quite slow I think it's enough).
Take care everyone.
PS: and wish me good luck, out of 9 players there are only 2 who played poker online...so I'm against "A6o and QJo is the nuts" players 
if action goes check-check. The first one to act shows the cards first. (first one to left of button)
If River is checked by both player a and player b and player B is button, Player A is suppose to show the hand first.
