Controversy At The Defending Champ's Table
There was a three-way all in between Brian Pinkus in the hijack with 39,500 at risk, the big blind and the under-the-gun player, who had them both well covered.
Brian Pinkus: 
Big Blind: 
Under-the-gun: 
It was a bit of a cooler to say the least and the board was dealt and 
as the lead in the hand changed twice, ultimately giving Pinkus a knockout and almost triple up after he get there with a straight.
The under-the-gun player was raising his voice as the floor was called because the dealer hadn't taken a cut of the under-the-gun's chips. Defending champ, Jason Wheeler was trying to resolve the situation and aided the floor person when he came over, explaining the situation.
The under-the-gun player told Wheeler if he is not in the hand, he should not get involved, though Wheeler was just trying to ensure the players were paid the correct amounts once the board had ran out. After it all blew over, the table relaxed and got a little more friendly as they resumed play.
Wheeler, the defending champ has had a good start to the day, chipping up to four times the starting stack.
