Michael Nye was penalized one rotation of play for the use of a solver.
Two players at a nearby table, with direct line-of-sight to Nye's seat, spotted him using a solver on a smartphone, and alerted the tournament director.
Apparently Nye had no idea that solvers are against tournament rules. According to WSOP rules, penalty for such use could range from sitting out an orbit up to disqualification.
The TD said he got immediate confirmation from Nye that he had indeed used the illegal device after a hand.
Nye reportedly said, "I just wanted to see if I made the right fold."
