Bet Size Announcement Ruling

[user252447]

Level 4 : 100/200, 25 ante

The table was called to Gerardo Gomez’s table where the final board showed . There was a pot of 5,500 in the middle and a single blue T5000 chip in front of Gomez. His opponent, Pasquale Braco from Italy, wanted clarification of the bet as he contemplated calling.

Gomez claimed he had said, “Three thousand.” before betting but other players corroborated the fact that he had just said, “Three.” After an initial ruling from the floor that the bet was 5,000 only added to the confusion, clarification was sought. The final ruling was the bet stood at 300, Braco called and when Gomez turned over he was bested by the .

Tom Hall wanted further clarification as he felt the bet didn’t make sense given the pot size and the tournament director arrived to confirm the ruling. It is never based on the size of the pot. If there is ever any ambiguity about the size of the bet it is a common TD rule to always take the lowest number.
