Message: [QUOTE="detroitjunkie, post: 2811801, member: 61462"] Raise rules: Any raise (or bet) must be equal to or greater than the previous bet (or big blind) to be considered a full action. Only players who have not acted may bet, raise, or re-raise a non-full action. What does this mean. Well in this hand you bet 318, this is your action for the betting round. Player 6 then went all in for 500. This is not a full action because the raise was not equal to the previous bet (yours at 318). A full raise here would be 636. Since the raise was not full, and you have already acted, you may not re-raise. All other people in this hand can raise because they have not acted yet. I would think player 8 would know this rule, and knew you could not raise, that is probably why he called, but you never know. Knowing this rule allows to you be in players 8 position and get a cheap showdown which is nice. [/QUOTE]
