Default Bally\'s AC Floor: Live Straddles prohibited by NJ Gaming Commission???

I was playing 2/4 yesterday at Ballys Atlantic City. I had only planned on playing there for a little bit just to check out the room, but the game was amazing and I was running over the table. (9 to the flop capped preflop)

I was getting bored sometimes and I had a huge stack and would straddle every few rounds. The fist 2 dealers I did it with had no problem with it, but on another down the action got back to me and I tried to raise, and was told I couldn't. The dealer said there are no straddles and when I told him I straddles all that ment to him was a blind raise.

I pulled my raise back to keep the action going because the floor was slow as [censored] at responding to floor calls, but I asked a floorman if this was Bally's policy and he told me "No, live Straddles are not allowed in Atlantic City, it's New Jersey law". Is this accurate?
