Ok, Its the Cash League Final and there is €1200 in the prize pool. There are five players left and the blinds are at 800/1500. I am in the big blind but am pretty low stacked with only 12/13 big blinds left.
I get dealt Jack,3 off and of course am eager to see a flop for nothing more! The three other players all fold and it comes around to the small blind.
The small blind drops out a 5,000 chip out on the table.
The dealer says; " Is that a call or a raise?"
The small blind says; " Call... or I mean raise!"
I. of course object to the raise. The dealer goes about justifying the raise when I am not having any of it. He reckons that the chip speaks! I ask him then why the query? He apologies for the query when it was obvious that it was a raise! I say it wasn't that obvious a raise as the player when asked the question answered "call!"
The dealer goes into more detail as to how the small blind has the smaller chips to just call and it's "obvious" that she meant to raise.
I call the floor manager over and he is pretty clueless to the situation.
Of course I know that she meant to raise but she said the word call in response to the specific question.
Opinions?
