Tournament Mistake Leaves Players Furious
It appeared that a player had not rejoined the field this afternoon and their chips were being blinded out. The empty seat is to Gavin Smith's immediate left, so his small blind has also been under attack.
Tournament officials realized there was a mistake--but not until the level was halfway over. These are actually Mirza Nagji's chips which could not be found when play resumed. They gave Nagi a new stack of chips based on the official count, not knowing that his chips were already opened at the table, but at the wrong seat.
Players at the table are understandably upset at this mistake by tournament officials. The decision was made to remove the extra stack, but leave the approximate $11,000 that had been added into play.
