why does WinstonSomme get to raise again after DEETEE goes all in for .73 more than a $2 bet?

Umm....Isn't it POT Limit? Can't you bet the size of the pot at any time?

yes, but why is betting reopened to WinstonSomme?

why wouldn't it be? isn't the .73 cents a raise?

[OrcaDK]

Why is this a bug? Winston doesn't raise himself, he just calls. If he had raised, he should naturally not be able to reraise, but since he just called, action is opened to him again.

[Arbogast]

It's a bug because the action should not be re-opened on a "raise" that is less than the amount of the original raise.

The all in player is effectively calling, not raising, and therefor Winston shouldn't have the option or re-raising.

This is definately a glitch in the software.

known glitch.

do you know what makes it happen? why haven't they fixed it?

Interesting. I have played much Pot and NL ring games on party and never encountered that. I'd email their support about it and see what their response is.

The other day a 5-handed 5/10 limit hold'em game at Absolute went:

SB posts $3, BB (me) posts $5, and UTG posts $5.

UTG checks, two folds, SB puts his last $4 all-in, and I search in vain for the raise button. My only choices are call the $2 or fold.
