Under-raise

#1 28th December 2010, 5:39 AM

Hi all

Its been ages so forgive me for not posting more often.

If this is somewhere else in the forum I could not find it so again I am apologising and posting it here:

Say the blinds are 5000/10000 and someone pushes all in for 15000 what is the usual protocol for not only the next player but each one after?

Is it ok to call the under raise or should you call the blind in this case 20000 and create a side pot?

Thanks in advance

As with many scenarios, position plays a role, your chip stack or "M" as well.

I think a simple answer is there's strength in numbers.

I see it many times where players raise after someones all-in. Much like the implied collusion principal, your equity goes up every time someone is eliminated.

Not sure about you math there though. If the blinds are 5k/10k and someones all-in for 15k it's a lesser raise, not a under call.

Thanks but I am actually looking for tournament rules about this

If the blinds are 10k/20k and he goes all in for 15k, you will have to call 20k, creating a side pot.

If the blinds are 10k/15k and he goes all in for 20k, you will have to call 20k, sidepot only if there is a bet or raise after this.

That's how I remember it at least.
