Re: Calling with extra chips in your hand
This happened in a indian casino in northern Minnesota. The funny thing was the villian kept talking about it for 10 minutes as I was stacking his chips. I almost used the old line "Quiet please, I'm stacking your chips." but I wanted to keep the game friendly.
The very next night at a different casino in NW Wisconsin we actually had a dealer who asked if 4 diamonds made a flush and if three of a kind beats a flush. You really have to pay attention at these small poker rooms.

Re: Calling with extra chips in your hand
[ QUOTE ]
Heads up, I'm slow playing a set of kings. Opponent bets the flop, I grab some chips, announce that I'm calling and drop 4 of them into the pot. Opponent says that since I took extra chips past "the line" they need to stay in the pot and it was a raise. The dealer doesn't know what the ruling is but I said "Fine, I raise." He reraises me, I look disgusted and just call. I fill up on the turn and take down a huge pot. What is the standard ruling for having extra chips in your hand when calling? [/ QUOTE ] These lines are being misused all across the country. THe appropiate way to use the line is if someoen bets and doesn't cross the line the dealer should use the line to show them to put the chips for a bet. Any other use of the line is creating a problem where there was none before.
