Re: management argue
As Randy and others have mentioned the answer seems to be in dispute (and I've heard it both ways over the years).
Here's the applicable written rule from an LA rulebook (Ciaffone's is similar).
"3 All raises must be equal to or greater than the size of the previous bet or raise on that betting round, except for an all-in wager. A player who has already checked or called may not subsequently raise an all-in bet that is less than the amount of the last bet or raise. For example: Player A bets $100. Player B raises $100 more, making the total bet $200. If Player C goes all in for less than $300 total (not a full $100 raise), and Player A calls, then Player B has no option to raise again, because he wasn’t fully raised. However, Player A can raise — after Player C goes all in — because he was fully raised by Player B. If Player A does raise, then the betting is reopened, and Player B can raise again."
IMO the written rule is unclear. But if rewritten I'd prefer the raise to be to $1500 unless you want to go to the "double the bet you are facing" approach in which case it would be to $1600.

Edit to say this thread would be better (easier to find) with a more descriptive title (e.g., "Min reraise after short allin raise").
