Bellagio's "take a free shot" rule

I am still alive in the Bellagio Cup. It has been a nice comfortably paced tournament in which I didn't have to panic even after finishing day one with less than starting chips. I am sitting on about an average stack now but looks like the structure is going to start really speeding up, which may be necessary if they are really planning on playing down to 27 from 125 today.

The one thing I love about the Bellagio tournaments is that they don't have dinner breaks and stop at about 9pm. I personally hate dinner breaks and would rather get home in time to relax and get a good nights sleep.

Things I hate about Bellagio tournaments. Theres a couple. Being squeezed in like sardines. Both at ten handed tables and in a room that is too small. It is nice to have the view, but not at the price of comfort. I am not saying I prefer the pit area outside the poker room though. Why not use a large room like the Rio does?

The second thing I hate is the crazy "betting line" rule. Although it has not affectd me yet, it is a terrible rule. The rule would allow a player to push his whole stack forward in what would appear to be an all-in move, but so long as they didnt cross the "betting line" it didn't count as any action. This would give a player that was willing to do it a free "shot", a bluff where if called he could just say "hold on, my chips didn't touch the line". This is not the rule anywhere else I know of, not even in the Bellagio poker room's cash games. Why they would put players who are not willing to take this "shot" at a disadvantage to ones that are is beyond me? I would like to submit this question to card players "Ask Jack" column.
