Khantrolling Behavior

Just now a player down to his last 10,000 pushed all in with K-4, and got one caller. He needed a king to stay alive, and thankfully for him one popped out on the river.

When the king came out, the player stood up and shouted, then clapped his hands in triumph. A member of the staff came over and issued a warning for excessive celebration, but no penalty.

So far this summer we haven't witnessed too much wild behavior at the tables -- although the Main Event is still to come. And we've seen very few instances of the so-called "Hevad Khan" rule actually being enforced.

Meanwhile, Khan himself has been very calm today at his table -- just as he has at every event at this year's WSOP.
