Re: Very questionable floor decision at the Gold Strike

The kid says "I put you all-in". I can understand that he may be confused. Of course, the verbal statement could be binding, but at the very least it would be a raise. Therefore, wouldn't the correct ruling be: "We understand that you did not realize the cash would be in play. Either min-raise to $60 total or be all-in."

The correct ruling would be "There was a gross misunderstanding as to the amount of money in play. Now that the misunderstanidng has been cleared up the player should act on his hand."

Well, that didn't even happen. All I am saying is that the floor made a bad decision by saying that the pot stays as it is and the dealer must put out the flop immediately. Neither player, especially the kid who intended to raise something, was allowed to do anything.
