Floor Provides a Ruling on Table #4
Level 14
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Some confusion occurred at Table #4 concerning an out-of-turn bet and what the rulebook states.
As Otar Gurgenidze was checking his cards when it folded to him preflop, the person in the next seat, Evgenii Syshchenko, moved all in for around 50,000. Gurgenidze then moved all in for around 60,000, and Syshchenko was allowed to take his bet back and fold. Gurgenidze called the floor and they explained that as the action had changed significantly, Syshcenko was allowed to get his chips back and fold. If Gurgenidze had just called, then the all-in bet of Syshchenko would have stood and Gurgenidze could then shove when the action got back to him.
Once the ruling was explained, the rest of the table folded and Gurgenidze claimed the pot.
