This came up. We play 3/6 FL with blind of 1/3, button raise and SB puts $1 chip on top of his $1 blind and then decides to muck his card. He wants to take back the $1. Yes or No?

[wafflestomper]

I'm sure he does. Nopers. A chip laid is a chip played...

[ipgyst]

I think death by guillotine is an appropriate measure. Then the $1 is a moot point.

[mike33]

That's 2/3 of the bet, so I'd say it's a call. Make him put the last buck in and play his hand.

Are you using a Chiptalk.net table topper? That betting line comes in handy. Money placed over the betting line is IN THE POT.

If there was no verbal declaration, and assuming his blind is over any imaginary betting line, then he indicated a call by putting another chip on his blind. Even though it's short the required amount, it's still a call and he owes another chip.

EDIT: OK, now I see there was a raise in front of him so he's not just calling. Then I think this falls under the rule that if you make a mistake in calling when you don't understand there was a raise in front, you can take back the call and fold.

It's been raised to $6? yeah, let him take his $1 back.

[abby99]

Agreed re letting him pull his buck back.

[guinness]

For a home game I would let him pull the $1 back in order to avoid a grudge vibe at the table.

[jojobinks]

why would you want to start a problem over $1 in a game where the average pots, i guess, are $25+?

i just don't get it. let him take his chip back and move on.
