Quite the Comeback
Controversy on Orange #2
"There's one more round of betting," Mizrachi reminded Dwan. Dwan suddenly realized his error and picked his hand back up. Mizrachi bet 6,000. Dwan tanked for about a minute, seriously considering calling the bet even though Mizrachi had seen his hand. He did finally fold.
Unfortunately for Dwan, a floor happened to be standing right over the table, watching the hand. As soon as the hand was over, he assessed a one-round penalty on Dwan for exposing his hand. The entire table protested that Dwan had exposed his hand in error and should only be given a warning. A second floor was summoned to the table, who ruled that the penalty for exposing his hand was automatic.
Just a few hands after that, while Dwan was serving his penalty, Phil Ivey was called for a string discard and the floor was called again. Because there was some confusion as to the action in the hand, Ivey was given a warning but was allowed to discard both cards.
An announcement from the tournament staff followed shortly thereafter: "Attention deuce-to-seven players. When you make your discard, please make it in one motion, and only one motion."
