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

I hate the ruling and the rule, tho I've asked around and just about everyone seems to think this is the way it should be. I had a similar situation a while back. Player bet, opponent said raise, player said call before the amount was stated. I hate it because it gives the bettor/raiser a free chance to shoot an angle. This aint football, and it's not the same as defensive offsides where the offense gets a free play. This is a tricky situation but offering free range betting when a player knows his opponent will be forced to call is a bad solution.
