Re: glgl MTTc in WSOP 2012 *OFFICIAL WSOP CHATTER THREAD*
Anyone know where the free shuttles that run back and forth from the Rio and the Strip are stationed this year? I think last year they were at Bally's and Harrah's but got rid of the Caesar's stop. Was wondering if anything had changed this year.

Ruling I was affected by yesterday:
Blinds 400-800/100
There is a dead small blind.
UTG I make it 1800 to play with KK.
Everyone folds to the button who is chip leader but a bit of space cadet.
He throws 5 x 500 chips in without saying a word. (He also admitted not saying a word, normally in a spot like this they claim they said "call").
I am nearly 100% sure he didn't see my raise.
BB passes and I annoubce "reraise" and attemot to put a decent size raise in.
Button causes a huge commotion.. "I only wanted to call!"
Ruling saught.
As he put in 2500, which was more than half my initial raise, he should have been forced to complete the raise to 2800.
I kept quiet while the decision was being made because I was 100% certain that was what the ruling would be and didn't want to give away the strength of my hand by forcing him to come to the correct decision.
But no, the floor chose to let him take the chips back and make it a call.
The flop came AAx.
I led out for 3200 or something and he called. It went c/c on the turn and then he made a huge bet on the river and I folded.
He might well have bluffed me on the river, but that is not the point really. He obv didn't have a premium ace, because he argued so strongly against his bet being counted as a raise. So he would probably have folded for my 4 bet.
It isone of the most basic and common sense rules in no limit holdem and the WSOP floorman just totally fcked up.
Two Plus Two
