Mah's Two Pair is Good to Add to Stack

Level 4 : 200/400, 400 ante

On a board of {a-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{3-Clubs}, there was a bet and a call with Thet Mah on the button and a middle position player going to the river.

The {10-Spades} completed the board and Mah bet 10,000 out of turn. He put his bet back when he was informed and was checked to by the middle position player. Mah then decided to check the river and flipped over {a-Hearts}{4-Spades}.

The dealer called over the tournament director who ruled Mah's 10,000 bet was still binding. The middle position player folded anyways and Mah took down the pot while the tournament director gave him a warning to make sure to follow the action and not act out of turn. In this case, he was still able to claim the pot to add to his stack and nears the 100,000 chip mark.
