Pay attention to the action!
Udo Tran came into the pot limping in early position, and action came to Salvatore Sproviero. He made a raise to 1,200, and Tran made the call. After which Sproviero mucked his hand. He didn't see Tran call behind him, and the dealer pulled his cards into the garbage pile before he realized what he did. Time to summon the floor.
Our Italian is certainly not up to par, but we know the ruling already here. It's the player's responsibility to protect his cards in nearly every situation, and Sproviero had to forfeit the chips and the pot. It's a gift for Tran, and he showed pocket sixes for good measure.
