Today's situation was unusual, but falls into the unintentional category, according to both the tournament staff and surveillance crew.
The "suspect," if you will, who was standing up at the time, had just won the pot. In one fell swoop, he picked up the bet he had cut in front of him, and then proceeded to pick up the entire stack of the player next to him, who'd already left for dinner. After that, he stacked up the chips that were pushed to him by the dealer.
The tournament staff handled the situation very professionally, taking the player out of the tournament area to discuss the issue. Both the tournament staff and surveillance crew gave the player the "benefit of the doubt," attributing the error to the excitement of the moment.
The chips have been returned to the affected player; 1,500 of them to be exact. The "suspect:" has been allowed to continue playing in the tournament.
