A floor call and table stakes
I get called to a 2-5 spread limit game. The pot is half way pushed and it is explained to me that the winner only had $5 left on the turn so he got out another $20. On the river he bet $5 and the other player raised to $10 and he called. How should this call go? Long time readers of this forum will know how I rule in this spot, but I thought this might create an interesting discussion.

He got out another $20 as in reached into his pocket?

Unless I'm missing something pull $5 back from each person and push the pot to the winner? Obviously you can't allow the pot to include money pulled in the middle of the hand although I don't know if a beating is included. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Action was offered and accepted; push the whole pot to the winner. If the other guy didn't want the pocket money to play, he should've spoken up when the bets/calls/raises were being made with that money.

Re: A floor call and table stakes
If the other player involved in the pot accepts the additional action I think it's fine. I realize this violates table stakes, but if both players understand what's going on and freely agree to the cash added I'm fine with it.
If the eventual loser wants to pull money off the table that he chose to bet/call, he gets a KITN. |

I have a feeling this is wrong according to table stakes rules but if the dealer and the other player did not object to the $20 when it was pulled out it plays.

Action offered and accepted [/ QUOTE ] then why have a table-stakes rule in the first place? |
