Alan Goehring Knocks Out David Sands Because Of Harry Cullen
Jul 17, '17
 Here’s a weird one for the first level of the day.
David Sands raised to 400 from under-the-gun, and was called on his immediate left by Harry Cullen. The action folded around to Alan Goehring, and he reraised to 2,000 from the small blind.
The big blind folded, and Sands decided to just make the call. Cullen then threw in a call, except he did it with too many chips.
As a result, the floor was called over to make a ruling. Because Cullen didn’t verbalize a call, and his extra chips amounted to more than half of the raise amount, he was ordered to min-raise to 3,600.
Cullen reluctantly went along with the ruling, and Goehring called the 3,600. Sensing an opportunity, Sands then moved all-in for his last 16,000 or so.
The action went back to Cullen, who said, “I still don’t understand why I had to put in more chips.”
Eventually he folded, and Goehring quickly made the call, having Sands covered. Sands showed A K, and was racing against the QQ of Goerhing.
The board ran out Q 97 84 and Sands quickly headed towards the registration desk for a rebuy.
“I had 9-10 suited,” said Cullen, pointing out that he would have turned a straight draw.
Goehring now sits with 52,000 in chips. Sands has since retaken a seat in the tournament, ironically at the same table. In fact, he is still seated on Cullen’s immediate right in a previously vacant seat.

High stakes tournament players don’t mind missing a level or two with a structure as good this one, and we just spotted another impressive group of guys.
David ‘Doc’ Sands entered the tournament a while ago and he’s looking to add another big score to his crazy 2013. In the beginning of the year Sands finished second in the $100k Super High Roller for $1.2 million and in May he won the WPT Super High Roller for another million.
Chris Lee won the $2,500 10-Game during the 2011 WSOP for over $250,000 and he’s here today as well. German pro Giuseppe Pantaleo, who final tabled EPT Barcelona in 2010, is also here as is Joe Kuether, Masa Kagawa and Paul Newey.

 “Boom boom,” David Sands said after we asked Philipp Gruissem what happened to him.
“Yeah, just write that down. Boom, boom,” Gruissem said as he was clearly not happy with the way he busted out.
“And Anton is out,” Sands said about Anton Morgenstern busting out of the WSOP Main Event, “So it’s actually boom, boom, boom.”
The players were laughing, but it was clear that Gruissem was far from happy with his bust out and the one of his German friend who started the day as the chip leader with just 27 players remaining in the WSOP main event.
