Fair or Faul?
Level 12
: 800/1,600, 200 ante
An interesting ruling was just made on Table 370 here in the Purple Section of the Amazon Room. It all started when Kevin Saul opened to 3,500, Ryan Fair three-bet to 8,100, Saul four-bet to 18,800, and Fair five-bet to 36,600. Saul then asked Fair how much he had behind - a question Fair wouldn't answer. Saul then asked the dealer to count it, and the dealer denied him as well.
Saul decided to call the floor, and while the floorperson wouldn't "tell" Saul the amount, he cut out Fair's chips so that the amount was discernible. Fair was furious.
Saul moved all in, Fair mucked, and the argument lingered for some time after the hand.
