Max D:
Agree with both Nick and Dave, and also if you want more around it Robert's rule  has specific wording relating to it.  But as stated before it is a privilege that can be revoked if abused.
5. Any player who has been dealt in may request to see any hand that was eligible to participate in the showdown, even if
the opponent's hand or the winning hand has been mucked. However, this is a privilege that may be revoked if abused.
If a player other than the pot winner asks to see a hand that has been folded, that hand is dead. If the winning player asks
to see a losing player’s hand, both hands are live, and the best hand wins.
6. Show one, show all. Players are entitled to receive equal access to information about the contents of another player’s
hand. After a deal, if cards are shown to another player, every player at the table has a right to see those cards. During
a deal, cards that were shown to an active player who might have a further wagering decision on that betting round must
immediately be shown to all the other players. If the player who saw the cards is not involved in the deal, or cannot use
the information in wagering, the information should be withheld until the betting is over, so it does not affect the normal
outcome of the deal. Cards shown to a person who has no more wagering decisions on that betting round, but might use
the information on a later betting round, should be shown to the other players at the conclusion of that betting round. If
only a portion of the hand has been shown, there is no requirement to show any of the unseen cards. The shown cards
are treated as given in the preceding part of this rule.
