Help me with this Poker rule.

[sauravgr8]

am looking for an answer to this question:

In No-limit is there a rule when a player can't check raise?

Example: Player "A" bets $50
Player "B" goes all-in for $70
Player "C" calls $70
the action is now back to Player "A". what are his options? As far as I know he can only call or fold because the all-in player did not make it a full raise and player "C" only called. So Player "A" is not facing a bet, only action.

When posting a reply please give the source of your answer wheather it is from a poker room, book, website ect.

Thanks in advance.

That is correct. You can not re-raise because the amount of second raise (when he raised to $70 he only raised the previous guy $20) is smaller than double the original raise amount.

Now, if this was a limit game, the first guy could "Complete" the bet, but still could not raise.
