Unhappy Freddy

While all the other remaining players went on break, somehow Freddy Deeb and Matt Giannetti kept right on playing, thinking that there were no breaks in this event. Deeb had a 4-1 chip lead over Gianetti and they played for a full 10 minutes into the 20-minute break before a floor supervisor came over to let them know they could not continue. By this point, Deeb's lead had eroded to a 2-1 advantage and he grew upset, telling the supervisor that he should get his chips back since they weren't supposed to be playing through the break in the first place. That wasn't going to happen and Deeb stormed out in a huff.
