The floor was called to make a ruling at Mohammed Suhail’s table a short time ago when he complained that another player at his table did not have his big chips out front. The floor ruked that the chips were clearly visible and there was no problem. Suhail disagreed and the argument was still rumbling on when Suhail was involved in a pot on the river and the floor was again called.
The board showed

Suhail had bet and his opponent had called. Suhail showed 
for rivered trips and wanted to see his opponents hand but he was reluctant to show. The floor was in the middle of explaining that the casino rule was to show on rivers that get to showdown.

Suhail is making chips at the table but not necessarily friends.
