Out of Turn, Now Out of Tournament

[user38334]

On a flop of {9-Hearts}

{9-Hearts}

{7-Spades}

{4-Clubs}

, the small blind bets out 4,800 and Swedish player Alex Holm goes into the tank. Before he can act, a player behind him announces "All in" (holding around 25,000). The floor is called over and it is ruled that if Alex calls, the out of turn action will stand.

Alex calls, the out of turn player is all in, the SB folds, and Alex quickly calls, opening {4-Hearts}

{4-Hearts}

{4-Diamonds}

for a flopped set. The out of turn player has {9-Diamonds}

{9-Diamonds}

{7-Diamonds}

for top two pair. The turn and river blank out and the out of turn player is out of the tournament.
