Thomas Busts Player Amidst Chip Confusion
On a board that read Joel Thomas put out a bet of 26,000 which was enough to put his opponent in Seat 7 all in. His opponent called quickly and Thomas turned over the for the flush.
However, Seat 7 did not immediately relent his stack as he argued that Thomas had only made a bet of 1,500 because no verbal announcement about bet size was made despite Thomas putting in a 25,000 and 1,000 chip. He claimed that due to the similarity in color between the 25,000 and 500 chip that a verbal announcement was necessary. The floor was called over and quickly ruled that it was a valid bet of 26,000 with a call and that the player in Seat 7 was indeed eliminated.
"That's a terrible way to go out" Seat 7 said as he left the table. The table looked at each other in confusion while Thomas stacked his new chips.
