Re: Is a raise allowed here? Interesting hand scenario
[ QUOTE ]
Here is the action: Hero UTG: Limp KK for $2 Decent UTG+2: Raise to $15 Mid-position: Goes all-in for $20 3 people in Late position call $20. I try to go all-in. Dealer says I cannot as $20 all-in didn't double the $15 bet (Or $2 into $15 bet). I think it's a stupid rule and it's been used before at that club too. Is this same rule used at AC and Vegas? [/ QUOTE ] Dealer's and incompetent floor often get this wrong. Had you just called the $20 allin "Decent UTG+2" would only be able to call (or fold of course). IOW the small allin raise doesn't reopen the betting for HIS complete raise. But you are essentially wanting to limp-reraise the first real raise (by UTG+2). That's OK. I think this stupidity gets mixed in with something I hear often - "you can't check-raise an allin player" (when others aren't allin). Sometimes you can and sometimes you can't; what matters is if there is a complete bet by someone who hasn't acted yet. If there is you can certainly check-raise (even if someone is allin). ~ Rick |

"But you are essentially wanting to limp-reraise the first real raise (by UTG+2). That's OK." That's what I thought Rick. This has to be the stupidest rule enforced in NL Cash. |
