A huge commotion broke out at Table 75 amidst a massive three-way all in pot. Mario Sousa was the loudest player at the table, rambling off in Spanish which was later translated. As relayed, there were already two players all in and Sousa had a decision to make but began speaking Portuguese with another player at the table which is not allowed. Sousa ended up folding ace-king face up with action pending which brought on the heated argument.

Eventually, the dust settle and the hand played out. Julius Kettunen was one of the players at risk for 114,000 with and was up against the big stack who had and the short stack who held .

The flop came and the short stack flopped a flush to take a big lead. However, the and runout gave Kettunen a full house and he more than tripled his stack.
