Level 15 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

After almost 20 minutes of stopped play, the issue has finally been resolved. Over on one of the tables, two players moved all in on a {4-Spades}{A-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} flop. One player showed his {A-Clubs}{Q-Spades} resulting in the other throwing his cards into the muck. The board ran out {8-Diamonds} and {j-Diamonds} and that should’ve been that. Gary Benson, however, asked to see the mucked cards and the {5-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}.
Benson then argued that the player who mucked had colluded and that he should get a penalty. After some long deliberation, the hand was called dead because the player had mucked his cards, and the gentleman holding the pair of aces was deemed the winner.
