Two Rulings

Level 4 : 100/200, 25 ante
The Line Doesn't Count
The Line Doesn't Count

A player called the floor over to ask for a hypothetical ruling as a hand wasn’t in progress. He asked if he moved chips forward and placed them on the felt behind the line that circles the table would that be considered a call. The answer was an emphatic yes:

“The line doesn’t count.” On the same table Jonathan Little asked a similar question about the forward movement of cards that don’t cross the line and got the same answer with the clarification, “It’s all about the forward motion.”

On another table came another question for the floor where there was a hand being played out. With a fairly decent pot in the middle Fabrice Maltez had said, “Five.” and had thrown out a T5000 chip. So was the bet a mere 500 or would, as he claimed he intended, have a bet of 5,000 stand? The ruling was, as it always is, that the bet would be ruled a bet of 500.

Maltez got a call and won the pot with his {q-Clubs}{j-Hearts}.

Be careful out there!
