kinda same ballpark as my
raise, reraise (Raise, Reraise...what happens?) question the other week.
i was speaking to a buddy tonight at the poker
i wasnt 100% sure of what happens so im posting it here to see if someone can confirm this
heres the scenario
2 players in a hand. Before the 1st player to act can do anything the 2nd player says i raise to 1000 ie. he acted out of turn
My buddy said that since he acted out of turn, if he checks the player who acted out of turn has to check too but if he raises to say 3,000 then the player last to acts 1,000 chips is in regardless
he seemed pretty sure about this. I know the rules arent the same in different casinos etc but my assumption was that if he player 1 raises then the 1,000 chips from player 2 are in the pot regardless. However, if he checks then player 2's raise of 1,000 can stand.
I have seen this occur in live events a few times but never with a dealer etc (ie. in the casino) so most of the time the out of turn raise stood
whats right?
