Penalties Abound

Level 27 : 50,000/100,000, 0 ante

Jared Hemingway was issued a three-hand penalty before break for folding out of turn. The floor staff warned all players at the table and urged players to take their break to clear their heads and to come back focused. Just three hands after break ended, Gary Vick folded his hand and exposed one of his cards, earning a two-hand penalty from the floor staff. The tournament director has been keeping a very close eye on players and penalties will continue if they continue to make mistakes.

Jared Hemingway: {a-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}
Martin Corpuz: {a-Spades}{2-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{q-Spades}
Dustin Sitar: {a-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}

The board ran out {j-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{5-Hearts} to see Hemingway spike a five on the river to scoop the entire pot with trip fives.

Sitar finished in ninth place, having lesser chips, and Corpuz enjoyed a fortunate pay jump, finishing in eighth place.
