On a board 9♥ 8♦ 7♠ K♣ Q♦, bb Chi Ying Tsai had a 50k bet out front an her cards K♦ 9♦ turned over. Button Keon Yong Ma claimed he asked for a count and didn’t say call. Chi thought she heard call and showed. The rule was made, Keon was still to act, he folded. Chi claimed it and rose to 344k. The debate continued because Keon had less behind than the bet so asking for a count seemed strange.
