What if the guy pulls in the 100 and then throws out the 100 and the 500 together?

Also an obv raise...if he leaves out the small blind and puts in an oversized chip its an auto call. This was like the first thing i learned at dealers school.

Sorry, pretty sure you're wrong. Pulling in the 100, then tossing out the single 500 chip without saying anything is a call. The simplest way to explain the rule is that you must either verbally announce the raise, or you must MOVE two or more chips at the same time.

def not a raise. again this is an oversized chip. it would be no different than if you were in the large blind for 300, and tossed a 5k chip in after someone raised to 1k. this is a call, as is pulling back the sb and putting in an oversized chip.

good rule of thumb. unless you're throwing out more than one chip at a time, announce raise. otherwise, one chip tossed out is always going to be a call in no limit when there's action ahead of you. i can't think of a situation where you don't state raise and toss an oversized chip that it wouldn't be a call.
