Marsha Waggoner Showing Great Sportsmanship

Two players were all in preflop. One held {A-Diamonds} {10-Diamonds} and another {A-Spades} {J-Clubs} . The board came {5-Hearts} {K-Diamonds} {Q-Spades} {3-Hearts} {3-Diamonds} to give the players a chop. The player holding {A-Diamonds} {10-Diamonds} thought that he had lost and left immediately. Realizing that the player was in error, Marsha Waggoner got up out of her seat and grabbed a floorman to try and get the player back. The floorman got on the mic and said, "The player at Blue 4, you need to come back. You still have chips."

The player who thought he had been eliminated came back very surprised and everyone at the table applauded as he arrived.
