After some recent controversy over a ruling at their table, Benny Glaser and Paul Tedeschi engaged in some friendly prop betting with Benjamin Tang.
The trio was arguing if a player moves all in for less than the bet, whether or not they can only call the bet, or if they are able to complete. Tang wanted to bet that if a player moves all in for less than the bet, if the bet is less than half of the bet, that players can only call the all in. Glaser and Tedeschi both took the side that a player should be allowed to complete to the full bet amount.
"I'm willing to bet $100 that you can only call," Tang said.
"I'll take that bet," Glaser said.
"OK, but I want the ruling to be from a different floor, to confirm," Tang said.
"Wait, can I bet too?" Paul Tedeschi chimed in. "I want to bet too."
The three settled on terms of a $200 bet. The floor on duty confirmed that Tedeschi and Glaser were on the winning side of the bet, but Tang wanted to wait for further ruling.
