Agreed. One of the few things that is almost as annoying as Slow Rolling.

Almost annoying as people making irrelevant posts that don't contribute anything to the original question.

You raised from the BB, end of story.

Dealer erred but provided a service to the table. She sides with you and half the clueless schmucks at the table will attempt to plink in raises one chip at a time outside the bb, then spend ten minutes arguing they made the same move as you.

I am in the BB and I throw out one chip, and another and another to raise.

Most of what has been said about your action has been said, but I had a similar situation the other day in the SB. I didn't say raise, and I had all the chips in my hand but I was flicking them out of my fist one at a time. Like a Pez dispenser. The dealer was a total bitch about it. Meh, is that a string? She said it was "stringy", which sounded to me like code for "I don't like it but I don't have a good reason not to because what you did is within the rules".

You are mistaken. For a string raise to occur the player has to call first. His choices in the BB are to check or raise; which does putting a chip in the pot look the most like?

so neither of you guys would have a problem if I raised my BB like this every time?
