Well then that gives the advantage to the guy breaking the rules, he can do this anytime someone is about to overbet the pot ....i.e. bet 3k into a 1.8k pot.

Simple, don't take a stack of $1000 when you intend to bet $3K, and cut off $200 stacks hoping to get a 'read' on your opponent as you are doing it.

And again, the OP ends up being a $2000 bet into a $460 pot. You really think, by the description, the player had any intent of making that size bet?
