i probably gave a bad example to begin with.
let's say that i'm the killer with the K
. and let's say it's 4-handed with these cards out:
seat 1: 2
seat 2: A
seat 3: K
seat 5: 4
- my kill would be automatically posted for $30.
- the 2
MUST bring it in for the minimum, which would be $5.
- next to act is the A
. let's say he plans to raise. he can only call the $5 for now, until action has passed through me (K
) the first time around.
- that first time that the action hits me i'm "forced" to complete the bet. because my kill has already been posted for me, i've technically acted and can't do anything the first time the action gets to me.
- let's say the 4
folds. action now goes back to the 2
and he decides to fold rather than complete the bet.
- the action is now back on the A
. he's still in for the $5. he can now "call" the completed bet or raise it up to $60. he raises.
- whatever his action is, i now have the option to act after he is done. he raises and i can fold, call, or re-raise him.
