Estelle Denis vs JC Tran Shocking WSOP Ruling or Not - WorldPokerExpress.com

Published: 2009/10/08 by elkywsop

http://www.worldpokerexpress.com J.C. Tran opened the pot with a raise from middle position, and the action passed to Estelle Denis. She moved all in, and the table folded back around to Tran. Somewhere in the folding frenzy though, Denis cards were pulled into the muck, leaving her all-in with no cards. Floor! Tournament Director Steve Frezer listened carefully to the dealer and to Denis before making his decision. The rule is that the player is 100% responsible for protecting his own cards, and Denis failed to do that. By rights, Frezer probably could have taken her whole stack, but he showed a little mercy and only took enough chips out of her stack to cover the initial call. The remaining 110,000 of her chips were returned to a very upset Denis.
