Can you attempt a fake match just to reveal and check your cards?
The rulebook only gives the failed-match consequence; the loophole reading comes from forum discussion.

The 2010 rules do not forbid it, but a failed attempt costs you: the cards are shown to everyone and returned to their places, the replacement card is discarded, and your turn is lost. The 2nd edition added a penalty-card rule; it does not apply to this edition.
