What a Kerfuffle

Just before the break, there was a long, drawn out kerfuffle on one of the central tables which seemed to attract the interest of not only myself, but also players on the neighboring tables. When I arrived, the floor had already been called, one player complaining, rather vehemently, that the dealer had made a mistake and split the pot incorrectly, and that he'd lost out as a result.

Judging by the reaction of the other players at the table, this issue had been bashed out for quite a while already, a rather disgruntled Yuval Bronshtein adding, "We've already wasted 15 minutes, it's screwing up my tournament, just look at the f*** cameras."

"There was no way it was split properly," continued the victim as Bronshtein exhaled a deep sigh.

"The dealer did it right, but in a confusing way," countered another player.

Hopefully the break will have brought this drama to an end, but whether they can check the cameras or not to determine whether the pot was indeed split correctly, is another matter.
