A Small Barny

Barny Boatman raised it up to 2,200 from the button before his opponent in the big blind dropped a single 5,000-denomination chip into the middle to go with his 1,000-denomination chip that was sitting in the big blind. His intention was to raise but because he didn't verbalize it, the dealer ruled it just a call.

The big blind wasn't happy and the floor was called to verify that it was indeed a call. Boatman remained silent and was able to see a flop of {6-Hearts}{K-Hearts}{5-Spades}.

The big blind fired 4,300 and in rather anti-climactic fashion, Boatman folded. He's at 168,000.
