Abdulzahra Doubles Off Zarbo Amid Controversy
Level 11
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Ali Abdulzahra had three-bet in the big blind before Giuseppe Zarbo moved all in from the hijack. Abdulzahra called for 55,000.
Ali Abdulzahra: Q♦Q♣ 
Giuseppe Zarbo: 8♦8♣
Abdulzahra was ahead with his queens, and the K♥9♥4♦3♦10♠ board kept him in front and earned him a double up.
The action did not end there, however. There was an extra 500 chip in the pot, and Abdulzahra was unsure about whether it was his. Zarbo protested that he shouldn't have to pay off the extra chip, and demanded that tournament officials check the cameras before action continued.
An official informed Zarbo that they weren't going to pause the game, and Zarbo continued to protest for several minutes while the situation was resolved.
