Whats the rule?

Thanks, Pants...but I think it was Mr. Rick who first introduced the $24 raise in this thread.

I would also like if there would be positive confirmation that the minimum raise would be based on the level of the all-in ($37) requiring a raise to $63 as opposed to the original bet ($26) requiring a raise to only $52.

I think the key here is that when you raise, it is a two step process. The first step is to put the amount in the pot which is required to call. The second is the put in the raise amount.

For a practical example, say the bet was $26 but the all-in player had $51 and pushed it in. If the rules were not as I stated in the first para, a subsequent player could raise to $52 straight which doesn't really look right, does it?

This is not the confirmation you were looking for so somebody please agree or disagree.
