A Severe Penalty

[user22113]
[user22113]
A table is broken and players disperse to their new seating assignments. An inexperienced player arrives at his new table with about 700 in chips in his hand, puts them on the table, and reaches into his pocket for the rest of his chips (approximately 7000).

The players erupt, saying "You can't put chips in your pocket!"

The floor is called over and dealers on both tables are consulted as to what happened. The dealer on the table that was broken confirms he had approximately 8000. A penalty is warranted, and they rule that the 700 he put on the table will remain in play, but that the chips he put in his pocket will be forfeited.

J.C. Tran reraises from the SB behind a raise from the button. The button moves all in and Tran calls with pocket queens. The button has pocket nines.

The queens hold up and Tran now has over 21,000 in chips.
