Bad Timing

With the board reading {2-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{3-Clubs} Erik Seidel led out for 5,000 and his opponent moved all-in for a total of 9,000. Seidel insta-called and turned over 4-5 for the straight, while his opponent was making a move with A-J. Only a five on the river would chop up the pot, but instead a four hit and Seidel pushed his stack up to 17,500.

"Where's my cards?"

On table 31, a player limps in in early position. The small blind is not at the table and the dealer mucks the hand. It is folded around and the dealer mucks the big blind's hand.

The floor gets called over and in the interest of fairness rules that the pot be split between the big blind and the player who limped in.
