My opinion
The really funny thing is, I don't know what the outcome was. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
My personal decision, with reasoning, is as follows...
Seat 4 obviously intended to bet what seat 1 had in front of him. Although a scenario could be argued that would force him to bet all his chips, it's not going to be the RIGHT thing to do here. He obviously meant to bet slightly less than $100, whatever seat 1 had. So that's the bet.
Seat 8 jumped the gun big time by calling all-in for his $800 or so. However, he did say CALL already, and a verbal statement made in turn is binding. A scenario could be argued that would state that he didn't have correct information when he acted, and should therefore be given a chance to raise. However, I think he should be held to a call.
Seat 8's action (or options) is a much closer decision (IMO) than seat 4's.
