Vitaly Lunkin open-shipped all in for his last 240,000 and it folded over to Mark Newhouse who raised the action to 525,000. The floor was called, however, as one of Newhouse's cards split down the center, breaking it into two even pieces. The floor was informed that he was dealt the card whole and snapped when he squeezed it out to look at it. The ruling stood that he would continue the hand with his current card and it would be replaced after the hand.
The rest of the table folded, allowing the hands to be turned over.
