dont know may have seen this last night but this was just another horrible ruling by harrahs at this years wsop.  all the cards are out, the young russian player( dont recall his name) takes a stack of about 40(?) 100k chips and shoves them forward, while not releasing them. he thinks for a few seconds, then pulls the full stack back, and puts out roughly half. at this point, the other player in the hand, calls for the floor, and the floor rules that yes he can push forward, and then pull them back as long as he doesnt release, which elicit a comment from a couple players at the table. one even asked, so i can take my whole stack, and shove it in and then pull it back as long as i dont release it? so the other player in the hand calls for the tournament director, who after asking some questions, and thinking it over makes the same ruling! wtf! lets review...scotty can curse, soft play and like an ass, no penalty. helmuth can curse act like an ass, get a penalty and have it overturned on appeal. i have never heard of such a thing as what they ruled last night. forward motion is considered a bet i thought, but apparently not at the wsop. worst part is, the other guy in the hand woulda made another 750k if the ruling had been the other way
