Sigh...just say what you are going to do. Look at the dealer and say two words...either "I call" or "I raise". It's not *that* hard [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

What if you are mute and can't speak?

If someone throws out 10.00 in two red chips or 50.00 in two green chips and the bet before it is $5.00 it should be counted as a raise. What are all poker players fvckking retarded or something? You need everything spelled out for you? Anyone with half a brain would realize that person is raising.

You are a sad person, do you even know how to converse properly? Let's say Mr Mute, playing 1/2, is faced with a raise to $6. He has no $1 chips, and he puts out two $5 chips. You are adamant that is a raise, but what if his intention was to call? How do you know when he puts out two $5 chips whether he's calling or raising? Maybe one way to differentiate would be 1 or 2 motions, 1 motion is a raise, 2 motions, a string-call so to speak, is a call.

But I would logically assume, as I'm sure most would, that it is a call unless he motions to the dealer it is a raise. Without being able to speak, surely the obvious signal is eye contact with the dealer and an upward-pointing finger. Thus, whether you can speak or not, your bet must be unambiguous, otherwise one way or another, you must make your intentions clear to the dealer.

The bet is FIVE! Not SIX FIVE. Got that FIVE DOLLA!. Two red chip into 6.00 bet is obviously a call, since the minimum to raise is 12.00 not 10.00.

FIVE FIVE FIVE!!! FEVER FIVE
