Not Such a Good Call

Shamus

A player in middle position raised to 1,200, then Sam Grizzle reraised to 4,800 from the hijack seat. The cutoff folded, then Thomas Fuller reraised all in from the button for 40,100 total.

The action was back on the original raiser when Grizzle started looking at his phone �� apparently someone was calling him and he was answering. At that point the dealer informed him he could not be on his phone during a hand.

"Well, kill my hand, then," said Grizzle. Fuller took exception, noting how it wasn't appropriate for Grizzle to be telling the dealer to kill his hand while the third player was still deciding what to do.

The floor was called, and Grizzle was again told to put his phone away but wasn't assessed any further penalty, despite Fuller noting that "he's basically folding out of turn."

"It just lit up," said Grizzle.

The original raiser folded, and Fuller took the pot.
