Someone clarify a rule for me Please.

half a bb post flop.

what is it for everyone else to call

[Scotty]

I know he's thrown in half the BB amount post, I'm just not sure why you mentioned the fact he had 1.5 BB behind him pre. It's of no consequence whatsoever what his stack was pre-flop.

[Scotty]

And in this scenario, 400 would be the flat IMO. the player acting first is betting, not raising.

even thought tha bet was not what i would consitute a legal bet.

[Scotty]

If he were raising, it wouldn't be a legal raise. He's betting.

[Brett Kay]

Players have the option for flat calling the 200 as it is post flop. Not pre.

Reraise options are 600 or greater.

Play online more .

Edit:

The 200 is counted as a bet post flop. Regardless if it meets the big blind requirement. Players don't have to call up to the normal min bet on the flop of 400, due to the simple fact that no one has bet it.

Reraise is still considered to be the bet plus the minimum of a bb or the size of the initial bet, whichever is greater.

Pre Flop opens the kettle of fish of stopping action, and also reopening the betting.

why would you have to put in more chips than someone else just because they dont have enough. doesn't make sense to me

This.

I'm of the assumption its 200 to call.

888 has it set as the BB, postflop

[Garth Kay]

Brett is correct.

As is everyone else who said the call is 200.

Post flop betting scenarios can be different to pre flop betting scenarios.

Post flop it's 200 to call, min raise is to 600.

[maccatak11]

Brett is correct.

AHEM.

They can flat call 200 and a min-raise is to 600.

players can flat call this bet

min raise is by the amount of the BB above this bet.

Brett was just copying the most knowledgable brothers in poker
