Now here's something you don't see every day: Will Zemljaric was forced to play a pot with his hand open and he won! Zemljaric opened the pot for 7,000 chips. Action folded to Joel Dodds, who raised to 26,000. Zemljaric was only too happy put his chips in the middle, announcing a call and proudly turning over {K-Diamonds} {K-Clubs}. There was only one problem -- Dodds still had chips!

A floor supervisor was summoned to the table to determine the appropriate action. He ruled that play would continue with Zemljaric's hand open and Dodds' hand closed. At the conclusion of the hand, Zemljaric would have to serve a one-orbit penalty for exposing his hand.

The flop came dow {K-Hearts} {A-Spades} {7-Clubs}. Zemljaric was first to act. Upon seeing that he had flopped a set, and that Dodds knew that he had flopped a set, he decided to move all in right there. Dodds folded, leaving his stack intact with 62,000 chips. Zemljaric is on 308,000 and cooling his heels on the rail for a few minutes.
