Default Re: what would the ruling be?

...It appears inconsistant to me that this would be allowed, and a string-bet wouldn't ?

It isn't allowed, and I don't see the connection to a string bet/raise. The reason you can't make a string bet is once you make a legal bet it isn't your turn anymore; the action is on the next player.

Note: This isn't meant as a technical answer, one of my pet peave is when a dealer tells a player "you can't raise, that is a string bet" if they had any idea what a string bet is they wouldn't have done it. It is much clearer if you explain it as "when you put the chips in to call you called and now it is the next player's turn, i fyou would like to raise tell the dealer before you put anything in or put it all out at once.
