Default Re: ruling question-hidden chips

This is the problem with players being allowed to bet without being forced to actually push the chips forward or over the line. Chips forward can't be misinterpreted. Also, players hiding big chips, and dealers letting them do this drives this song and dance into compound meter. Most likely the floor will rule that the bet will stand, but I'd applaud one who would not allow this angle to succeed. Don't count on that.

No, because he would be forced to call it when he made the call. At least, according to what you're saying.

Not this particular instance, but cant we worry about an angle shot where someone says the did not see the other chips ONLY if they lose.

In that case, it would be up to the floor to determine whether or not the larger chips were in view. Either they're in plain view, or they're not. This should be a simple call to make.

It should be clear from their action if they saw them. If they set out 400 they didn't see them, if they push out a big pile they did see them. This sort of hing tends to work against the person the is hiding their chips.
