When we got to the table, we could see that three players were involved in the hand and the {J-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{J-Hearts} was flop being dealt.

Kristijonas Andrulis in the small blind bet 5,000. Bruno Politano in the big blind called, and Men Nugyen on the button raised to 13,000. Andrulis folded and Politano called.

The turn was the {2-Hearts} and Politano checked to see Nguyen going all in.

"How many chips have you got in a stack?" Politano asked Nguyen.

Nguyen refused to count, the rest of the table tried to guess but, in the end, Politano asked for the floor to come. The dealer explained the situation to the floor. The floor eventually took one of the stacks and counted them.

"Twenty-four in a stack," he said. Andrulis asked the floor what the rule was exactly as he thought that it was a rule to have 20 chips in a stack. The floor confirmed that stacks don't need to be in stacks of 20 but do need to be easily identifiable.

In the end, Politano called. Nguyen showed the {K-Hearts}{10-Hearts} for a flush but Politano had the {J-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} for a full house.

The {6-Clubs} on the river didn't make any difference as Nguyen was drawing dead anyways.
