Raising and de Wolfe

[user76023]

A player opened to 675 and Anthony Romanello min-reraised to 1,350 at which point Roland de Wolfe thought this was wrong. He was told by the dealer as well as some of the Irish players including Alan Smurfit that in the Irish Open the min-reraise rule is different (as opposed to EPT's and most other tournaments in Europe). So in an EPT you could min-raise at 150/300 to 600 but a min-reraise would be 900, here at the Irish Open the min-reraise would have to be 1,200.

This did seem to irk de Wolfe somewhat but he immediately min-raised the next hand and took it down with a 600 bet on the {A-?} {K-?} {6-?} flop against the big blind.
