Default Re: Taj floor decision 2/5 nl

In a lot of places a raise is possible if the previous raise was >= 1/2 of the first raise. Here russian raises 63 to 198 which is >= (125/2 = 62.5), and hence a raise should be allowed under these rules. Most dealers I've encountered cannot add/divide properly. But again, some places don't follow this 1/2 rule.

I realize its more fun to think that the raise is $63 because it is just over half of $125 (which is also the wrong number to look at because you have to subtract the $2 big blind to get the net raise). But the raise was actually $73.

Carry on.

This action wasn't pre-flop. The level of the blinds are irrelevant.

Guess I can't add either. But yea, 73>63 so it doesn't matter here.
