Default Re: Rule question concering a stradlle and blind raise

A) A player should not be allowed to act out of turn, straddle or not. Being allowed to take the chips back is insane and the floorman who ruled that way should be shipped back to blackjack.

B) Players going all-in against each other. Ok, if both players are known to be "very" experienced. Sad situation if one of the players is a relative newbie and doesn't realize that when faced with an all-in bet that they only have to call the limit of the game. Example: the game is 10-20, player A makes an all-in bet at the river of $300, player B only HAS to call $20. If they don't realize this and ends up mucking the best hand, we are likely to lose a new player to roulette.
