Level 26 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante

David Grandieri raised to 43,000 from middle position, and received three callers, including Luke Graham (cutoff seat), Ryan Carter (button), and Chris Hyden (small blind).

The turn was the , and Hyden sat quietly for over a minute.

"All in," Hyden announced, committing the rest of his 606,000-chip stack.

Grandieri went deep into the tank, and while he was thinking, Graham asked the dealer if he could leave the table for a second. The dealer said no, because he's still in the hand. It appeared as if Graham spilled something on his shirt, and needed a napkin to wipe it off. A server went to retrieve one for him, and when she returned, Graham got up from the table and met her half way.

Grandieri was upset with this, and the dealer said that he would call the floor after the hand. Graham got back into his seat, Grandieri folded, and Graham instantly folded.

Tournament Director Bill Bruce had been observing the later part of the hand, and explained to Graham why leaving the table with action still pending is bad etiquette.

"If you do it again, you're going to get a two-round penalty," Bruce warned him.

Graham sincerely apologized to the table.
