Benjamin Pollak arrived at the table to find his bag of chips had been wrapped in another bag and when he opened them discovered that he didn’t have as much as he had written on the bag the night before. He thought he had 275,400 but this morning counted 267,000 which represented a shortfall of 8,400 or just under three big blinds.
The floor was called and it was explained that an extra bag is sometimes used if it was felt the first one was not secure enough for some reason. The floor went off to investigate and came back shortly after to say there were no unaccounted for chips and therefore nothing could be done. Without apportioning blame it was suggested that he may have miscounted. This is a rare but not unique occurrence.
