Zarcadoolas Sends a Player to the Rail Early
Matt Zarcadoolas raised to 700 from middle position with the button player coming in for a call. The small blind made the minimum raise to 1,100 leading to a call from Zarcadoolas and a debate between the players and dealers as to whether the 1,100 constituted a legal raise size.
After a short back and forth, it was agreed that the dealer was right and the raise stood. With action back on the seemingly somewhat frustrated player in the button, he announced all in and put his chips forward. The small blind folded and Zarcadoolas decided to put in the call and send the pair to a run out.
Button: K♠10♦
Matt Zarcadoolas: 4♣4♦
The board ran out 9♣Q♥6♦3♦5♠, offering no improvement to the player in the big blind, as Zarcadoolas collected his chips and sent him to the rail with an early bust out.
