1/2 NL live casino
the hand itself isn't too interesting but basically:
Hero (425) limps behind many in co w 97o..
Pot (14) Flop J85 rainbow, someone in EP bets 7 and 5 callers (i'm one of them).
Turn (49) blank 2, check, original better bets 7 again, CALL CALL, i call, SB (+300) ch/raises to 30 total... everyone folds to me in position and i call.
Riv (81) TEN! SB (285 left) bets 75, i raise to 225 and the 60ish white male amateur looking guy says "call-allin" (like as one word) and starts moving his chips forward ...
I then snap "call" and he says "you got the straight" and i say "yeah" and turn my hand over. (he has set of JJ) Dealer then says "he's not allin, it's just a call" Floor came over, had the hand explained to him and said "it's just a call"
it's was clear to me he was allin, especially with the motioning of the chips. and he said it in one word, no pause/breath. it was like an amateur mistake by saying "call" first, it was like "i call allin".
Do you think this is a **** ruling???
end result is i lost 60 bucks on the ruling.
