Miles Exits Amid Controversy

Level 15 : 1,200/2,400, 400 ante

Timothy "T.K." Miles raised about 20,000 from middle position, leaving himself just 100 behind. Anh Van Nguyen was sitting to his immediate left and said something, before throwing out 20,000 in chips.

Mark Radoja was next to act and there was some confusion to whether or not Nguyen said, "I call... and I want to put him all in," or just "I want to put him all in." The former would mean that he just calls while the latter would force him to min-raise which was affecting Radoja's decision. The floor was called over and due to the recollection of the dealer, it was ruled a call. Radajo ended up folding while people at the table were still trying to figure it out which did not please some table members.

Regardless, the rest of the players folded as well, and Miles was in trouble with his {10-Spades}{4-Spades} versus the {a-Diamonds}{j-Hearts} of Nguyen. The flop was {7-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{a-Hearts} which was even worse news for Miles. THe {q-Spades} turn and {5-Clubs} river sealed the deal and Miles hit the rail.
