Bets Out Of Turn and Sponsorship

The play has been very conservative and passive so far in this heads-up encounter. The most noteworthy moment in recent times came when Yoshihiro Tasaka accidentally raised to 56,000 out of turn from the big blind.

A Japanese translator had to be called to the table to explain to Hidenari Shiono that if he raised then Tasaka would be allowed to take back his bet. In the end Shiono just called and won the pot with a bet of 50,000 on a flop of {2-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}{4-Spades}.

A few moments later another translator helped to explain to the players that if they were kind enough to wear a couple of shiny new PokerStars.net patches that they would be rewarded with seats at the upcoming APPT event in Manila, Phillipines! Patches all around!
