At Blake Cahail's table, we witnessed the most amicable resolution to a dispute we can ever remember seeing.
The game was Omaha Hi/Lo. Apparently, at showdown, Cahail and Allen Kessler both tabled their hands. The dealer mis-read the hands and thought Cahail won. He killed Kessler's hand, pushed the pot to Cahail and then killed Cahail's hand.
It was just as the second hand was being killed that Kessler protested that he actually had the winner. A floor was summoned to oversee a resolution. The table agreed that Kessler tabled the winner. Cahail wasn't sure, but since the majority of the table agreed Kessler won, Cahail re-constructed the pot and then pushed it to Kessler.
Pat Pezzin was recently involved with a hand against Andrew Revesz in which he folded on seventh street, leaving himself with just 2,000 chips.
Pezzin: (XXX) / 6-7-K-4

We caught up with the action on fifth street, where Pezzin called a bet from Revesz, which he would do again on sixth street. He wasn't able to make another call on seventh street, though.
In the very next hand Pezzin was all in after starting with A-6-K, but would go on to fill up with aces full of sixes and bust.
