Re: Interesting ruling..
I am late to this because I was having trouble opening 2+2 for some unknown reason. I don't have much to add here, but there are a couple PMs in my box asking my opinion.
When Player B asked how much it is he is no longer reuired to see the bet, by asking he has told the dealer to countthat I can't tell how much it is. When he calls for $500 is player A wanted to object now is the time to do it, the dealer is taping the table to put up the river now is your chance to object.
THe $500 bet needs to stand because player A has allowed Player B to act on the $500 and gets the potential benfit of player B calling a bet that he would have folded for $625 and then asking for the addition $125.
I see more and more NL problems being posted because there are very few people playing that are familiar with NL procedures. In the past there were only a handful of NL games and the players all knew the rules and places that spread them woudl have floormen that knew the rules so it worked out well. Now NL is being played by inexperienced players with inexperienced staff. Player B did everything he could to protect himself (he isn't allowed to reach over and break down the chips himself).
