Re: Ruling Question: Oversize Chip Thrown On Top of Blind
It's a call at Beau Rivage, and at any poker tournament I am associated with. The rule was intended to prvent an ambiguous action. If there is any doubt about a players intended action in that spot, it is ruled a call. the rule reads " when a player places an oversized chip in the pot without announcing the intention to raise, it will be considered a call" verbage may not be exact, but the fact that the player is actually placing ONE chip into the pot at the time covers this situation.
