Default Re: A very interesting ethics situation and a Bellagio Floor ruling

I really don't understand how he increase the bet-size that much having already started his act of betting.

Can I reach forward with $50 in chips and drop them one at a time until I get to $35 or $40 and then say, "$2000" and reach back for the rest of my bet?

I thought if I was going to bet $2000 I either needed to say so before I started the physical motion forward OR I needed to have that many chips with me in my motion forward because I'm not allowed to go back to my stack.

Someone clarify this aspect of it for me please. I'm not talking at all about someone interrupting in the middle and saying "call."
I'm just talking about holding $50 of chips in your hand when you reach forward, cutting out a few of those chips, and then saying "$2000"
