Ignoring my horrific play....This hand absolutely infuriated me. Is there any good reason why on the flop I should only be allowed to raise 1 freaking dollar? I realize this rule will likely help me as much as it hurts me in the long run (Although, how often do situations like this come up?). Are the rules like this everywhere, or does Stars handle it differently than other sites?
