Misread Raises the Stakes for Yeo
Level 27
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Hossein Zomorrodi announced all in from under the gun for 590,000. Korte Yeo, thinking it was a min-raise, put in 160,000. After all other players folded, the floor was called, and it was ruled that Yeo must call the full amount since the all-in was clearly announced verbally before chips were pushed in.
Before the cards were on their backs, Yeo said to Zomorrodi "you are way ahead".
Hossein Zomorrodi: 7♦7♠ 
Korte Yeo: K♦9♦
The board ran out 8♠5♦J♠3♠2♥, and Zomorrodi doubled.
