Just before Table 436 broke, a small controversy broke out around the embattled Brandon Cantu.
Apparently, Maria "Maridu" Mayrinck drew one card during a hand of badacey while Cantu patted, but Mayrinck had taken back the card she put out and placed it back in her hand after Cantu patted. She then placed the card back out.
Cantu called the floor, and Mayrinck told the floor the only reason she had taken the card back is because she thought she had been dealt a new card. Mayrinck's neighbor confirmed she had put out the same card, as did the dealer.
Cantu pointed out that since she had put the card back in her hand, she could have easily changed her mind about what she wanted to do and put out a different card after seeing him stand pat. Since Cantu hadn't seen the card, he had no way of knowing if it was the same one.
"I thought you said yesterday you didn't angle," a player at the table said. "There's no scenario in which she would change her draw."
It was ruled that since she had placed the card back in her hand, the draw was dead and she had to stay pat for that round. Cantu patted behind and both players checked, then they checked the end as well. They ended up chopping the pot, as Cantu had an eight-low while Mayrinck had a badugi.
