Wu Four-Bets Mariano ... Or Not?
Level 26
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Yuanning Wu raised to 100,000 and Archie Mariano three-bet to 350,000. The initial raiser then grabbed a stack of T-25,000 chips and piled them in while announcing a reraise to 750,000.
The dealer announced the amount and that's when confusion broke out as discussions went on for more than six minutes. Mariano insisted it was just a call and the floor was called over as both sides explained their action. Mariano was visibly upset and ultimately, it was ruled as a forced min-raise to 600,000 as it couldn't be determined if the chip movement and verbal announcement came in which order.
Mariano gave it brief consideration and folded.
