Question about raising
Here's a scenario I see occasionally, but I rarely see the official answer addressed within anyone's official rules:
No Limit Tournament.
Blinds are 1 and 2.
Someone raises to 5 (BB of 2 + a raise of 3).
What is the minimum someone can re-raise?
I've seen two answers:
1. You must double the last person's bet from 5 to 10.
2. You must raise by at least the amount of the last action (which was a raise of 3). Therefore, the minimum raise must be 5 + 3 = 8.
