Coloring up is a key part of most poker tournaments, as it allows dealers to occasionally replace smaller chips with bigger denominations. This reduces chip clutter and makes calculations easier when betting.<\/p>\n

While usually it\u2019s a routine process, coloring up in a World Series of Poker (WSOP) event on Monday nearly led to disqualification for the leader. Tyler Brown had the biggest chip count in the $600 Mixed No-Limit Hold\u2019em\/Pot-Limit Omaha Deepstack event when floor staff asked him to color up all his chips worth lower than 100,000.<\/p>\n

He offered up 2 million chips because he wanted to keep a small stack of a lower denomination, with the staff asking for 3 million. After a heated back-and-forth, the floor claimed he never even offered 2 million chips, something other players at the table refuted.<\/p>\n

Brown allegedly called the tournament staff liars and they contemplated disqualifying him for his behaviour. Eventually he was able to continue by giving up the 2 million chips and serving a one-round penalty, going on to win his second WSOP bracelet and taking home $178,126.<\/p>\n

The incident split opinions online, with some people backing Brown and blaming the floor staff, while others said that he should do what he was told.<\/p>\n
