Fair Play Award

At Blake Cahail's table, we witnessed the most amicable resolution to a dispute we can ever remember seeing.

The game was Omaha Hi/Lo. Apparently, at showdown, Cahail and Allen Kessler both tabled their hands. The dealer mis-read the hands and thought Cahail won. He killed Kessler's hand, pushed the pot to Cahail and then killed Cahail's hand.

It was just as the second hand was being killed that Kessler protested that he actually had the winner. A floor was summoned to oversee a resolution. The table agreed that Kessler tabled the winner. Cahail wasn't sure, but since the majority of the table agreed Kessler won, Cahail re-constructed the pot and then pushed it to Kessler.
