The bolded part here is wrong. Once you announce a bet, you can take as many trips to the pot as it takes. If I say, "Raise to $100," that's my bet. Period. For obvious reasons (like if I changed my mind), I can't only put $50 chips out there and then not be allowed to complete my bet.
This guy didn't do a good job announcing his bet, but he did, and just in the nick of time.
