Is this a tournament or a cash game? Did you say "call" or just move your chips?

If it is a cash game and low(er) stakes most rooms would allow you to reverse your action, pull your bet back and fold. High(er) stakes most rooms you will likely be made to call the full amount. If you said "call" you are bound by that regardless of the stakes.

If it was a tournament, well frankly it depends on how strict the room is. A very strict room is going to rule that you made a "forward motion" with chips which is a bet, and you will have to complete it to the correct amount. If it is less strict, you would be allowed to pull back and fold. Again if you "said" call, there is no way out, you called regardless if you knew what you were calling or not.

It was a tournament... $20 rebuy (so nothing too serious)... I didn't say call I just threw a chip the size of the big-blind in.
