In episode 5 of the WSOPE Martin Johnson makes a hero call with king high versus Kenny Tran. Annette is sitting on Johnsons left and she applauds his call. As she is clapping her hands she brushes a chip off one of her tall stacks and it falls to her left. The guy on her left palms this errant chip. Did he return it?
If Annette says he didn't return this chip to her how should I proceed. I saw a crime take place. Am I morally obligated to somehow try to right this wrong? Does my not doing anything make me as guilty as the lowlife scum who grabbed the chip?
You can download this incriminating video at thepokerbay.org if your stomach can stand watching this dispicable act, which takes place about 14 minutes into the show. You can also click the link below to watch it on PokerTube. Best viewed in full screen mode.

wut a lowlife, to steal someones chip so lame........not sure how annettte didnt notice that she knocked one of her chips off her stacks though, maybe she shouldnt be so good to have soo many chips that she might notice when her stack is t1000 light.....
If i was at the table and saw that happen i would for sure say something and get that guy thrown out of the tourny, no tolerence for this sort of shit imo, but are you talking about saying something now??? You know that guy didnt return the chip, he pulled a little chip riffle with it as soon as hit the table to disguise his lame move...... -

agreed, that was smooth! I never would have noticed that. But if it's me and I see that live, I'd probably say something to the swiper and give him a shot at giving it back without making a scene. If he declines, then I'd probably attempt to shame him in public.

that was very interesting to see.
LOVE TO HER WHAT annette has to say about this, NO WAY HE GAVE THAT BACK -
Wow great catch.
Damn Annette got robbed and still won, reminds me of when her stars account got hacked and when she got it back she was up 10k
MBN -
who hacked that acct,id like to know?
my pw is ******** have at it -
hmmm..the scene before the chip clap you can see the guy handling chips, its possible he thought it was his own dropped chip..
is that possible? remember you are accusing someone of cheating...you better have evidence to prove intent...
remember that esp trny where guy accused other guy of not posting his blind..argument went on for awhile before the directors said enough...the guy did post his blind/ante what ever it was -

What a Chip swipe, What a call against Tran!!! To the OP you should change the tittle of this post and Include annette_15 name in it. This alone will generate alot of replys and I think alot of people would want to see this.
Has Annette Seen this yet.?? -

Okay I changed the title.
For the record, I am not really outraged at this chip stealing, although I believe in right and wrong and I think it is wrong.
I gave it a moral slant so I could post it in OT, where we frown on poker posts, but thrive on posts depicting lowlife behavior.. Settle down folks, it was funny to watch. -

When the chip fell it was very close to the man and he could have thought it was his. Aneete won the tourney anyways so I dont think it really mattered.

It's been an hour since i noticed the change in the name,and i can't believe this retarded thread is still on the forum.

Somebody should email the organisers and get them to give Annette an extra chip for next weeks show.
