Event 15: Kuether And Abut Out, 23 Left

$2,200 Six-Max No Limit Hold’em (Freezeout)
Level 10: 400/800/100 Ante

A controversial hand and some time in the tank resulted in the elimination taking us down to four tables.

Joe Kuether made a raise for half his stack on a 7s6s6d2s4c board and Uri Kadosh put his stack all-in – or did he?

The dealer was facing away from Kuether but said he heard Kadosh say “all in” and threw the all-in button.  Kuether called the floor saying that chips were put in by Kadosh before he said all-in thus making it just a call.

After a long discussion, the floor staff eventually ruled that Kadosh had indeed gone all-in and Kuether then went into the tank for about five minutes.  Kuether eventually made the call for the rest of his chips and Kadosh quickly flipped over 2d2h for the full house.  Kuether mucked his hand and bowed out in 24th.

Raquel Abut was also eliminated shortly after and the field went down to 23.  At this point around 20 mintues remain before play ends for the night.
