Event 8: 11 Tables Getting Busy

 $400 + $50 Deep Stack Double Play NL (2 Re-Entry)

They're in level 9 with blinds of 500/1,000 with 100 antes.

With the ever-increasing blinds and antes, players are busting out quickly now.   Down to 11 tables, so fewer than 110 remain.

Big hubbub over on table six.  A short-stacked player goes all-in, another player goes all-in for more, then a player says "call", not realizing there was a second all-in. 

The ruling is that the player is responsible for following the action (both all-in players had put their chips over the bet line) and the verbal "call" is binding and the player has to call the bigger all-in.

This happens frequently in no limit events when players are wearing headphones and don't hear the "all-in" or are watching TV and not paying attention to the action.
