Morris Reluctantly Folds
Level 34
: Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante
At the end of the previous level, Rena Varghese raised to 1,000,000 from the middle position and called by James Morris in the cutoff.
They both checked through the K♣5♥Q♥ on the flop to the 2♦ on the turn. Varghese announced a bet of 2,000,000 but only put out one chip of 500,000. The rest of the table corrected her and she added on three more chips but Morris didn't agree and asked for a ruling.
He claimed he heard her announce "two" but only put out one chip. The floor listened to his claim and ruled as the minimum bet was 400,000, the bet of 2,000,000 was what is was. Morris shook his head, looked at his cards, counted out his stack, and then reluctantly folded.
