Very quick b&m rules question

[nigelloring]

Will be playing live in wsop and am very inexperienced live, so please bear with me.

Instead of saying "raise all-in", can one verbally declare the single word "push" for the same effect?

[goofball]

that might not quite be good enough. "all in" certianly would. Are you that lazy?

[nigelloring]

I think the single word "push" is more elegant.

LOL

Ive never heard "push". Sometimes they "push" all their chips in without saying anything.

Yeah...it's definately a good idea to possibly screw up your intended action in a $10,000 buy-in event because you want to be elegant.

So just say "allin" instead of "all-in" I guess. AFAIK, "push" isn't an action.

Is this topic for real? A push is a definite term in blackjack, where the player and dealer have the same count, and the wager is returned. In poker, you must declare "All-in" or place all of your chips across the bet line to indicate that you are wagering all of your chips.

I just prefer to use my best Russian accent and say ..."I bet it awwwllll".

I agree. I prefer to use the term "cheque," because I find it more elegant.

WTF?!?!
