Floor!

Level 4 : 100/200, 25 ante

“Floor,” called the player facing a bet on the river from Russia’s Gaik Karabakhtcian on a board reading {2-Spades}{3-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{k-Hearts}. When the floor arrived the dealer explained what happened. Karabakhtcian had announced a bet with a blue T5000 chip in his hand, said “four,” and tossed it across the line. The floor responded, “Ok, I’m going to rule that as a bet of four hundred.” Karabakhtcian was surprised by the ruling but when his opponent tossed the 400 into a pot worth several thousand he was at least relieved to see his {a-Spades}{k-Clubs} was good enough to win as his opponent mucked.

There are a lot of rules in live tournament poker and it pays to know them as bet you can.
