ruling? moron-yes
Well if you like to play with your lighter while you're pumping gas, don't be surprised when things blow up in your face. Same deal here, the player would be at the mercy of the floor, and of course the player who holds the nuts and will try to make the all-in a reality by throwing a hissy and swaying the floor's decision. Maybe not being such an idiot is in order for a change. Maybe not trying to find every single last possible shade of grey for every single possible rule and ruling is the new order of the day. But I doubt it. With the dumbing down of america comes texas hold'em, and if this dumb **** winds up getting declared all-in, tough. The ruling should go towards the principle of obvious intent, but often it won't, and I'll offer no comfort for them (other than a KITN).
