I think because the all in was less than a full raise, all you can do is call.

Why though? What is the logic behind this rule?

Nevermind think I get it now. In essence I have been called not raised.

the rules make sense to me.
You have KK and 1000 chips and bet 100.
The guy with 44 calls.( he has 1000 chips as well)
The shorty with A7 goes all-in for his last 130
And now you want to reraise??? Doesnt seem fair to me.

you made the bet 150, he made it 260, i don't see why you owuldn't be able to raise... the minraise in that situation would be to 250, the short stack more than covered it.

What's the deal?

to put it another way. what if the short stack just minraised to 250 instead of going all in? you certainly would be able to reraise, but you can't reraise at 260? doens't make sense.

This page from the RGP FAQ sums it up rather nicely. And it seems like either your site differs from these rules or your numbers that you used as an example are not accurate.
