Nappy Hellmuth
Phil Hellmuth has been dozing in and out at his table(s) for much of the tournament as a result of being awake for over 27 hours now. According to his Twitter feed, he was up all last night playing a variation of Chinese Poker.

In a recent hand, a player at Hellmuth's table moved all in and action folded around to Hellmuth, who had been napping in his chair. He flung in a call from the small blind, but was unaware of the all-in player.
Oops.
Hellmuth then mucked and forfeited his 400 chips that were already committed to the middle.
Hellmuth is sitting on 14,000 at the moment and will likely need some sort of pick-me-up if he wants to make a run at this thing.
