Lococo Gets a Warning, Loses Pot Shortly After
Alejandro Lococo received a warning from the floor for apparently mucking his cards in a way that made them partially visible to others at the table.
"That's the second time I've seen it, and I've been here for four hands. He has to get a warning," said table newcomer Chance Kornuth, who added that he did not believe Lococo was acting maliciously.
Lococo appeared slightly annoyed but accepted the warning. The next hand, Kornuth opened to 200,000 from under the gun and Lococo flat-called from the small blind. Denys Prydvor also called in the big blind.
The three players checked on the flop of 
and checked again on the 
turn. Lococo led out with a bet of 400,000 on the 
river. Prydvor called and Kornuth folded.
Lococo tabled 
for top pair but it was no good against the 
for Prydvor for two pair.
"You lost the minimum there," said someone at the table.
