Don't be this guy

Like all things poker in it just depends.

I played a tourney in Vegas and announced a raise of 150.

I tossed in 125 mistakingly, upon noticing the the mistake I then proceeded to toss in another 25.

The dealer tossed the 25 back saying the bet was 125.00, thus overriding my verbal raise.

I didn't argue the table didn't seem to care. It wasn't a string bet, I was just trying to make the pot right. I don't know what the dealer was thinking.

So... you can never depend on the human element being consistent.
