Just one hand after the incident that just happened between Will Failla and Andrew Brown, Brian Roberts was involved with a hand against Brown. The flop was 
and Roberts had bet. Brown raised to put Roberts all in with no one else in the hand.
With Roberts tanking, Brown said along the lines of, "I hope you don't have a set of aces."
Roberts responded, "No, I don't have the nuts."
Failla chimed in and asked the dealer to take control of the situation as there is a rule in place that disallows players from talking about their hands, even during heads-up play. Brown stated that no one else was in the hand, but Failla mentioned that it doesn't matter. Finally, the floor was called... again... and this is what happened after Roberts eventually folded.
A different floorman than last time came over and was told the situation after the hand was complete. It was ruled that both Brown and Roberts broke the rule about revealing any information about your hand and were issued a one-hand penalty. Both Brown and Roberts tried to argue, but the floor was adamant that the ruling was correct. The players then asked to get a new floorperson for an explanation. After a minute, another floor came over and explained that if it was him, he would've given the players more than just a one-hand penalty and said that he'd have issued a one-round penalty, so they should consider themselves lucky.
After the floor left, the players talked a bit more about how the no-talking rule is pretty absurd in their opinion.

Michael Mizrachi checked a 
flop to his lone opponent, Vanessa Selbst. She bet the pot, and he called. He checked again on the turn, and Selbst potted to 16,300. It didn't take very long for the Grinder to reraise all in for another 50,000 or so. Selbst thought about it for a few seconds before tossing away her cards. She's been on a steady slide today and is down around 75,000. The Grinder is up to 100,000.
There has been a ringing noise coming from the table right in front of our media desk for a little while now. Not much was said about it at first, but after a while Andrew Brown piped up. From what we gather, it's Will "The Thrill" Failla's phone and Brown asked, "Does that thing go on silent?"
Failla responded by shaking his head no.
"Well, does it have an off switch?" asked Brown.
"Do you have an off switch?" came back Failla.
Brown took a little offense to that comment and then told Failla that the phone has been going off for quite some time and that Brown's entire side of the table was getting annoyed with the sound. Failla came back with a comment about Brown having OCD and taking his medication. Brown told Failla he was going to call the floor and Failla pressed a little more, commenting on Brown's choice of hairstyle. Brown then called for the floor, then asked the dealer to call for the floor. The dealer did so and over came the floorman.
The incident was explained and the floor asked Failla to please put his phone on silent. He also gave a warning to the table about the incident.
Daniel Negreanu just busted in 20th place in Event #40: $5,000 No-Limit Hold'em / Six Handed. He's made his way back over to this event and was able to quickly find a double up through Allen Bari.
When we got to the table, Bari's 
was tabled versus Negreanu's 
on the board of 
. According to Negreanu, the money went in on the turn, which would make sense seeing as both players held sets. Unfortunately for Bari, his set was worse than Negreanu's and he was on the losing end of things.
