As we wind towards the close of play yet more drama around the vexed rule of a round penalty if you act out of turn, with shouting and accusations of players deliberately hiding cards to gain an advantage.

This ends up with Paul Romain (who has acted out of turn, and thinks the player has put his cards behind his chips and therefore he should not receive a penalty) getting a penalty and erupting like Vesuvius at the TD, other players and pacing the casino like a wounded Rhino with a Roulette fetish

He says to Dave Robinson, the other party "You are out of order" and I have deleted the expletives

Bed cannot come too soon for most of this field!

Rugby has the answer... "ok that's one round for acting out of turn and 2 more rounds for swearing at me."

It is a standard rule across all D 4 Events tournaments. It being their event, its being run to their rules

Numbers will be fine Jason 150+ today will make 220 total for an over £100,000 prize pool

Confusion around this rule aside, which is not the venues fault the organisation by the G Luton has been perfect.

Good luck at DTD. Have a shave, Adam will be taking plenty of pics of you!

yes catering for 70 must have been a nightmare. But £100k pool is excellent. Had a shave last weekend in ireland. Did not want the chinese whale in the plo games. Worked for about an hour too.

Thanks to Tightend and Caroline for great updates. Today will be a much bigger field and I am looking forward to reading the updates throughout the day.

The acting out of turn rule certainly seemed to flummox a few people but it is used in a lot of events and I am very surprised about the number of incidents that occurred yesterday compared to any of the previous events where it has been in place.

The G Casino Luton has been great so far. Dena, George & team have been excellent.

hmm....yes I will admit to a bit of an eruption :-(

I was absolutely furious at the time and not in much of a better mood today. This was the 11th level of a long day. To the best of my knoweldge there hadnt been a single incident of anyone acting out of turn on our table all day to this point. I was in c/o in seat 6, and looked down at my cards and then back up at the players to my right. I saw no cards at all. There was a player two to my right who had his hands nearly flat on the table in front of me and who was staring straight ahead and didn't appear to be engaged in the hand any more. I looked at the dealer and that instant he was looking directly at me - so I folded. The dealer looked to the player to my left who raised. After a while a voice pipes up from seat 4 "Aren't you going to say anything?" (aimed at the dealer).  Dealer "what?". Seat 4 "They've acted out of turn". Dealer * blank look*

At this point I look over to figure out why Seat 4 is complaining as i STILL can't see any cards in front of him. I lean back and forth trying to get a view. In the end I have to lean right over behind seat 5, virtually standing up out of my seat to see that , yes indeed Seat 4 has two cards that are completely concealed underneath his hands. "how am i supposed to see your cards underneath your hands mate" i say.

Seat 4 now calls Dena over, whilst now half withdrawing his hands so that his cards are in clear view. I request that he places his hands back where they were originally which he refuses to do. Dena asks the dealer whether the cards had been concealed. He says not. I am far from convinced that the dealer even saw the action was still on 4 himself but there is no arguing with the dealer stating this as a fact and I am given a penalty, which results in me not playing another hand that night.

Dena was good enough to come up and apologise to me afterwards, which i reciprocated to her for my reaction, for she could only go on what she was told. I remain convinced that this was an unfair penalty, for a genuine mistake - and a first one at that -  after a very long day and when the circumstances were at the very least worthy of some benefit of the doubt and a warning being given, and at worst some pretty poor gamesmanship

Not happy

Oh and in addition my exact quote to seat 4 was "you are out of order mate" - there were no "expletives to be deleted" . My reaction on being given the penalty however was "this is ****ing ridiculous" directed loudly to no-one in particular. I do not accept that I swore at either another player or Dena, although if anyone who witnessed the incident is clear in the memory that I did (I was a bit excitable at the time and accept that it is at least possible and i dont remember) then I will happily apologise
