Ruling Please . . . Is This A Bet?
This is about what constitutes a bet. Our table has no betting line. River card had been dealt. Player A took a stack of $100 chips in his hand and started to count them out in front of his cards, maybe two or three inches in front. Before that, his chips had been behind his cards. He counted out one stack of five $100 chips and had put down four $100 chips next to that stack. While still holding chips and appearing as if he was about to put down one more $100 chip to make a second stack of five, Player B says, "I call," and throws in a $1000 chip into the pot. Player A says he didn't call yet, and takes back his chips.
Did Player A bet or not?
