"I got nothing," Korman said, flipping up 
. "That's sick," she said, sadly looking down at her remaining chips. Korfman just grinned at the cameras. Wonder if he factored TV-time equity into his play.

The penalty will begin at the end of the hand. All players at the table are entitled to see the exposed card(s), if requested.
"That's my first penalty ever!" Savage claimed to our PokerNews reporter in a semi-excited tone.
"Well at least I doubled" Savage added before beginning his orbit hiatus from the table.
