Question on raising/"one chip rule"

Yeah, I was meaning to get around to saying something about these two contradictory statements. This is such a fuzzy topic people are even arguing with themselves in this thread. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

There is nothing contradictory in what I said.

The action, as posed, is a clear raise.

However, if a truly ambiguous situation were to arise (again: this is not one), then rather than creating this Rube Goldberg system of which-chip-went-in-first/etc/etc, the best solution is simply to ask the player to clarify their intent. In such a case, I would also seek further clarification from my floor (out of the box) so that the apparent ambiguity in the rules could be addressed, rather than leaving a soft spot in my game that could be exploited by angle-shooters in the future.
