Mute in the Small Blind
3/6 Hold'em. Small blind is in for $1 in the form of one white chip. A few limp then the small blind places a red chip with his white--without verbally announcing a raise-- in one smooth motion and clearly with no deceptive intent.
Is this a raise? If no, why? If yes, no explanation needed.

Call.
Same logic as the 'single oversized chip' rule. The action is ambiguous. When an action is ambiguous, it is ruled to be the least aggressive alternative.

Re: Mute in the Small Blind
He's putting in $6 and it's not one chip, how is that not a raise? How is putting in $6 when the bet is $3 ambiguous?

He is only putting out one $5 chip when it is his turn to act. If he had reached and grabbed the $1, and then thrown a $1 and a $5 out, that is different. But he didn't do that. Toss a $5 out, pause, grab his $1 and two $1's from the BB. He was just making change. Guess you have never seen that.

Re: Mute in the Small Blind
i disagree, this is absolutely a raise. If he puts in the amount for a raise without pulling anything back or announcing it is a raise every time.

This is a call. This also shows why 3-6 should have only $1 chips in play. [/ QUOTE ]
