Easy Fold for Taonus

Our intrepid field reporter heard, "All in!" and duly rushed to the table in question -- only to discover that the vital "...And call," bit had been missing from the dealer's cry.
Actually, it was a bit unclear what had happened. Mr. Gjorgji Chuchuk (harder to spell than to pronounce) had his whole 46,825 stack counted out in front of and a pair of aces tabled. Ms. Narrmayet Taonus (harder even to pronounce than to spell) had 16,000 invested in the hand but had not called -- everyone at the table was claiming she had called, but she maintained that she had said, "How much is it to call?" To be honest it looks as though it might have been a combination of dealer error and overexcitement from Mr. Chuchuk and his aces. It was decided that Ms. Taonus had not yet called, and she opted to muck, as you do when you know you're up against aces.
Mr. Chuchuk became involved with another player the next hand -- they saw a
flop and turn, and Chuchuk raised a bet from his opponent. "CALL," said his opponent, very clearly and deliberately. Much giggling from the rest of the table followed."Interesting table to watch, this one," commented tablemate Shaun Deeb.
