$30 is half or more of the full bet, so it counts as a full bet. There is no complete to $40, there is only raise to $70, which counts as two bets (towards the cap, if applicable). Reraising this bet should be self-explanatory, it counts as a three-bet. Anything else is just another KITN. Al

It's so cute when people get all "this is the way it IS!" and are totally wrong. I would think we've had enough conversations about this sort of thing by now that you'd realize there are cities outside of Vegas, Al. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

As was explained, in the cardrooms in this region, anything less than a full bet/raise counts as a check/call. Players after can only complete to the full bet, and only if they would normally have the option to bet/raise.

So to go back to the OP... basically, here's what he's asking:

Player A checked and is all-in. Player B checked. Player C bet. Can Player B raise?

The answer should be obvious.

At least, that's how it's done in these here parts. Your mileage may vary.

Except in San Jose, where it only counts as random poo flung into the pot for fun.

Yes, but you have to match the poo or get off, er, out of the pot.

well this thread got sidetracked. can you guys assume he said:

Live 20/40 LHE. Never seen this situation before, what's the correct ruling?

River:
Player A bets $15 and is all-in.
Player B calls the $15.
Player C completes to $40.

B & C still have money behind.

Can Player B re-raise to $80 or must he only call/fold? I think he can raise, because he is call-re-raising C and not A.

In the big LA card clubs Players C "complete" is the first real bet. Thus Player B can checkraise just as if he never made a bet in the first place.

It may be different elsewhere.
