8-game intercontinental title, referee failure
The intercontinental 8-game title will change hands in most pro-wrestling-esque screwjob manner. One table from the money, Jerrod drew two to 77433 on the flop in triple draw. The dealer flipped up the deuce he was meant to give to Jerrod and the floor ruled that he would not get the deuce (which is the correct ruling). The other card he drew was a five. So instead of making a wheel, Jerrod makes 97543. The opponent makes an 86 and Jerrod is eliminated from the tournament on dealer error, ugh. Bobby Heenan may as well have distracted the floorman so that someone could hit Jerrod from behind with a chair.
The proper play, for Jerrod, is obviously to just roll out of the ring and run out of the Amazon Room with his one big blind, since the title cannot change hands on a DQ or count-out.
In other news, I'm through to Day 2 of the 1k, and I've just been informed that this is a Day 4 event so it's not actually possible for me to use this event as a satellite to the 25k. Saaaaaaad.
