Confusion

Here's an interesting one.

With the first couple players ducking out of the way, Pierre Neuville opened the pot with a raise to 77,000. Nearly simultaneously, Ryan Franklin put 70,000 chips out in front of him, thinking he had seen Neuville muck. If Franklin's chips had gone into the pot before Neuville's raise, he would have had the option to change his action. But because nobody could be certain which chips hit the felt first, Franklin's action was determined to be a call. He added the extra 7,000 on top to make it match.

Two seats over from Franklin, Jeff Sarwer slid out a healthy reraise to 325,000, and Neuville and Franklin instantly folded in turn.
