More so playing online, some people just want to show down that they had a royal flush/quads/straight flush and don't want to risk everyone folding.

There was 1 instance i've seen where 2 people lost out on over 300k because one had the straight flush and one had the royal flush, normally this would qualify for the bad beat jackpot, however, both these guys decided to check down to show their amazing hand, end result, the pot wasn't large enough to qualify for the bad beat jackpot.
