Re: how is this a string raise???

Also - it occured to me that there IS a possible string-raise style angle-shoot by your actions.
Hypothetical: Lets say you stall after placing the one chip out there to gauge a reaction. He believes your one chip definitely committed you to raising already. He then says, "re-raise" because he's a weirdo who wanted to limp/re-raise from the SB.
You then decide this isn't such a hot idea in light of his re-raise and say, "Oh wait...I only put 1 chip out there. That doesn't commit me to the raise, does it? I forgot I was in the small blind. I was only trying to call. Sorry about that."
Stuff like this, of course, is why they invented the string-raise rule in the first place.

This is retarded. Any amount of chips thrown in when I am the BB is a raise. If I am on the river, and I fumble my chips and put one in at a time, is that a string bet?
