Tournament Rules on Party Poker

Jekyll · #1 09-22-2006, 12:19 AM

Ran into a situation playing a SNG on party today. Don't have HH, but not really necessary.

Blinds at 100-200, UTG raises to 400, I call, and BB pushes, a raise of 75 more. UTG reraises over top, and I fold.

Question is this: Was that raise enough to re-open the betting? B/C my call was based on that not being the case, and I ended up having to let the hand go. What's the TDA rule? Does party follow that?

I had this on party today, I'm BB and the blinds are 200, Button calls, SB raises all-in with 240 chips, I call. and button raises all-in. Horsecr@p, but I guess that's the way they play it.

The TDA rule is that the all-in raise has to be at least the amount of the previous raise for the action to reopen for the previous raiser and everybody who's acted after that raise.

Was this a sng? I've never seen this.

It's a bug in Party's software. Use it to your advantage.

I'll certainly keep it in mind, I just wanted to see if I was right. Last time it'll burn me.

i thought it was regularly 50% of the original amount, not 100% to reopen betting.

It's strange though. There have been times when I could re-raise and when I couldn't. It happens so rarely, that I can't recall the differences in the situations.

Maybe I'll just start putting in raises with ATC when there's a shorty likely to go all in and figure it out.
