This is a 'No-Limit' home game.

Blinds are 50,100.

'Player A' raises to 400 chips (has pocket aces).
'Player B' calls the 400 bet made by 'Player A' (has KQ).
'Player C' the short-stack goes all-in with 410 chips (has pocket nines).

action gets back to 'Player A' - he now want to re-raise and go all-in, so he can push 'Player B' out of the pot and stay alone with 'Player C'.

The question is - can 'Player A' go all-in here ???


He claims he can, because 'Player C' raised him (even though it was just a 10-chip incomplete raise).

We all said - he can't re-raise, because no-one had raised over him a complete raise.
He says in 'No-Limit' you can do whatever you want - someone raise you - you can re-raise, no matter how much was raised...

Who is correct here ???

plz help........

You are correct. He cannot re-raise here. If player C had made a complete raise, then he would be able too. The way you have described it, Player A only has the option of Fold or Call. He cannot raise.
