, Henry Gingerich announced a bet of 1.5 million. Calvin Musil dropped in 125,000, which prompted Gingerich to table the ![]()
for a wheel.
Musil thought Gingerich had bet "one hundred twenty-five," hence his drop in call. The tournament director was called over and ruled that Musil's dropping of chips constituted a call of the entire bet. Musil didn't seem too pleased, not necessarily with the ruling, but more so with the mistake.
One thing's for sure, it cost his a good portion of his stack.
