Hey poker peeps!
During a live cash game blinds are $5/5NL.
There is a straddle to $10 and re-straddle to $20, a player bets out $35 by mistake because he thought the straddle was only $10.
What would be the ruling here?
A: This is called a "short raise" and the player takes back $15 of his $35 and only allowed to call the $20 straddle.
Or
B: He is not allowed to take back his bet and he must put out an extra $5 to complete the minimum raise of $20 to $40.
This player did not say raise but acknowledged he wanted to raise but raised the wrong amount right after betting.
If you agree with B, what if a player puts out $25(multiple chips, not just one $25 chip) without saying raise when the straddle is $20?
Does he take back $5 or is he forced to min raise?
If he takes back $5, what is the minimum amount he has put in the pot to require him to min raise?
Thanks!
