Chino Rheem opened to 15,000 from the button before Kemal Sevevi moved all in for 121,500 from the small blind. Ergenyi Taranuk in the big blind thought for several minutes before he also moved all in, for 331,000.
Rheem immediately stood up, "Ok I need a count."
He then loudly announced, "I have ace-king and two guys just shoved on me..."
A crowd began to form, Rheem continued with a half-statement, half-question, "It's ok for me to say that because I'm last to act right?"
Tournament director Matt Savage shook his head and told him this was not the case. Rheem even showed his 
to a couple of players over his shoulder before he began to calculate the odds.
Matt Savage told Rheem he would be getting a penalty at the end of the hand but Rheem did appear to genuinely not know that he couldn't show his hand in this situation even if last to act.
Rheem, "At least one of you has to have the same hand as me...God, I want to double knock you guys out...."
Finally after a couple of minutes he folded his hand.
Sevevi turned over 
and Taranuk flipped 
.
"Wow," said a watching Robert Mizrachi.
"What can I do?" said Rheem, "This f**king guy has only played five hands."
"I'm not criticizing, I'm just saying," replied Mizrachi.
The board ran out 
as Sevevi doubled up to about 265,000. Rheem, meanwhile was lamenting the fact that he would've picked up 200,000 more in the side pot as Matt Savage gave him a one round penalty for exposing his cards.
