When we walked up to the table, the board read 
, and Allen Kessler and Jean-Robert Bellande were heads up. We're not certain exactly what the action was, but we know that Bellande was faced with a bet when he tossed enough chips in to make the call. There was a pause.
"Is that a raise?" Kessler questioned.
Bellande said nothing.
"Dealer," Andrew Brown piped up. "Is that a raise?"

The two continued to bicker, but it's Kessler who's a few thousand chips richer at the moment.
