I won a hand after I called for chips so those chips play.” The floor manager named 'Adi' comes over and the DEALER ADMITS that he incorrectly confirms to me that it was $225 to call his all in instead of $375. The player in seat 8 then says “Wait, I had $650 to start the hand so he owes me $150 on top. Those other chips don’t play.” I say “So to clarify and confirm, seat 8 started with $500 total and it’s $225 for me to call his all in?” The dealer confirms “Yes, $225 for you to call his all in bet.” I call and lose the pot. I ask the dealer how much is his all in? The dealer says “He started with $500 total so you have to call $225 if you want to call his all in. This player had $400 cash on the table with some chips in front of him.
I bet $200 into a $200 pot on the turn and seat 8 goes all in.
Last night, I was playing 2-5 $500 max buy in NLH at the Pechanga Poker Room and had a $800 stack.
