A player called the floor over to ask for a hypothetical ruling as a hand wasn’t in progress. He asked if he moved chips forward and placed them on the felt behind the line that circles the table would that be considered a call. The answer was an emphatic yes:
“The line doesn’t count.” On the same table Jonathan Little asked a similar question about the forward movement of cards that don’t cross the line and got the same answer with the clarification, “It’s all about the forward motion.”
On another table came another question for the floor where there was a hand being played out. With a fairly decent pot in the middle Fabrice Maltez had said, “Five.” and had thrown out a T5000 chip. So was the bet a mere 500 or would, as he claimed he intended, have a bet of 5,000 stand? The ruling was, as it always is, that the bet would be ruled a bet of 500.

The flop was and a continuation bet of 1,100 from Vinklarek got a call. The turn card saw the Czeck check and after some thought Adeniya placed out a bet of 1,225. Vinklarek seemed unsure for a short while but soon let him have it.
Dmitry Yurasov has been sitting fairly quietly recently but when the player directly to his right, Nandor Solyom, opened for 500 Yurasov three-bet him to 1,250.
The other players got out of the way and it was back to Solyom who cut out raising chips and made a four-bet of 3,525. One last look back at his cards for Yurasov before they hit the muck.
