This happens a lot when a player accidentally puts out more than a call but not the full raise. Like, in a 1/3 game someone makes it $15 to go and the person puts out $25 in reds.
"That has to be $30," someone will try to help out.
"No," I say, "the bet is actually $27 so you need to put $2 more out there," I'll motion to the player.
Without fail someone will argue with me and I have to spell it all out. Makes me wish I had an abacus with me.
Just this past week it came up and someone just refused to understand what just happened. Literally was mumbling to himself about it for five minutes. And this wasn't an idiot, it was a semi-competent reg who for whatever reason just couldn't wrap his head around the fact that you doubled the raise, not the whole bet in front of him.
