I'll have to let every Casino I've played in, plus get in touch with the WPT and World Series of poker and let them know that because none of them play that rule. The reason I brought it up was because I thought you could just call the all in and then obviously if you wanted to continue betting on other streets a side pot would be made, but people in the LPL went with your interpretation of it.
Last night I got clarification on the matter as I was watching a WPT event and it was down to the last 3. someone went all in for less than the big blind. the 2 other players just called his all in and then checked it down. I would presume the WPT plays by the correct rules of poker and therefore the LPL doesn't. Really not an issue just that if you're playing a game it makes sense to play by the correct rules.

WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG
What you seem to forget it the WPT and WSOP shows are edited and they dont show the fact the players have actually called the BB if the guy goes all in for less than the BB.
Mike is correct in stating that if player A goes all in when the blinds are 100/200 for 150 every player would have to call the BB of 200 and the extra 50's would be in a side pot.
Maybe i could suggest some people buying a book of the rules?? I am sure WHSmith sell them for around 2.99. Or better still maybe buy the WPT mag as they included a book of the rules inside one of the issues
