Rules Question

[Zybomb]

I agree with this as well. PLayer B clearly announced that he is going to put player A all in....thus no matter how much he puts in the pot, his verbal bet is what stands. Then player C called...... The amount put in the pot is IRRELEVANT. He announced what his bet was, and you can noit change that bet. Like TP said, you cant say raise, make it 3000, see an opponent is about to call and then put in 1200 (if you are bluffin) or 6000 (if you got it)

The only confusing thing is what the phrase "I'll put you all in" means. This is not a real move, which is why all this confusion exsists. Player B verbal bet is what counts not the amount he put in.....BUT the point which was brought up which is interesting.... what exactly is meant by I'll put you all in? I assume it's I'll bet whatever you have left...but technically if you raise to 100 arent you also putting the player with 30 dollars all in? If this "I'll put you all in" isnt thought of as a specific amount, just a comment, THEN the amount put in would be considered the announced amount....as putting that much in the pot, would be putting the player all in.

This is why the phrase I'll put you all in' should never be used -- either you are all in, or you bet an amount which covers your opponent.
