Michael Mizrachi checked a flop to his lone opponent, Vanessa Selbst. She bet the pot, and he called. He checked again on the turn, and Selbst potted to 16,300. It didn't take very long for the Grinder to reraise all in for another 50,000 or so. Selbst thought about it for a few seconds before tossing away her cards. She's been on a steady slide today and is down around 75,000. The Grinder is up to 100,000.
With Roberts tanking, Brown said along the lines of, "I hope you don't have a set of aces."
Roberts responded, "No, I don't have the nuts."
Failla chimed in and asked the dealer to take control of the situation as there is a rule in place that disallows players from talking about their hands, even during heads-up play. Brown stated that no one else was in the hand, but Failla mentioned that it doesn't matter. Finally, the floor was called... again... and this is what happened after Roberts eventually folded.
A different floorman than last time came over and was told the situation after the hand was complete. It was ruled that both Brown and Roberts broke the rule about revealing any information about your hand and were issued a one-hand penalty. Both Brown and Roberts tried to argue, but the floor was adamant that the ruling was correct. The players then asked to get a new floorperson for an explanation. After a minute, another floor came over and explained that if it was him, he would've given the players more than just a one-hand penalty and said that he'd have issued a one-round penalty, so they should consider themselves lucky.
After the floor left, the players talked a bit more about how the no-talking rule is pretty absurd in their opinion.

One table is playing musical chairs. They had just broken Table #277 (the table numbers don't correspond to the seating draw). Just as that table was emptying, a player (who shall remain nameless) spilled an entire cup of coffee across the felt at a different table. It was too big of a spill to clean up quickly and continue playing, so the whole table moved one over to the recently-vacated #277.
