Not Sure That's A Good Idea

According to players at the table, including Gary Clarke, the player in question had been steadily drinking and then declared to his tablemates that he was going to the restrooms.
The player then left and it was only after he had gone that the rest of the table noticed that there was only one $100 blue chip remaining on the table when the player had been playing with a stack of between 5,000 and 6,000.
Chips taken off the table in this manner are removed from play and hence he blinded out a few hands later and has now been eliminated from the tournament.
