Is a raise allowed here? Interesting hand scenario
I was playing at my local poker club the other month and I was wondering if this (stupid!?) rule applies also in AC and Vegas.
Scenario:
I have KK UTG in a very loose 1-2 NL game. I limp and thena Decent player makes it $15 to go (standard). Next some idiot goes all-in for $20 total with QJ off suit (boo yah!) and then 3! people proceed to call $20.
I moved all-in here with KK expecting to scoop a $100 pot but I was told that I can't raise the $20 all-in since His raise didn't double the bet.
$15 to $20 isn't a double.
Needless to say the flop came 678 and I didn't win the hand against that field.
Does this same rule apply in AC and Vegas?
