Again, that is a terrible awful rule. The PRM should be shot for creating it. It is NEVER a good idea to allow a player to make a bet then put a different amount of chips in than the bet he just made. It creates unnecessary ambiguity.
As psand said, if they do actually go "to the cameras", it will look like a bet and call of that chip/stack, not an all-in. Unless they also throw out the all-in lammer, in which case, what was the point of putting in chips too other than confusing P2?
Hey, I'm not arguing with you. I just play in the room, I'm not part of the incompetent management team that runs the place.
As for the actual question this thread was built around. I have no problem whatsoever with the one chip call/shove. I'm not here trying to convince anyone of it or to claim that it's a better procedure than the alternatives, it's just my opinion on the subject.
