I understand the situation - but I fail to see the problem -- not your problem anyway -- smile and move on

Regardless of the reasons or methods it most definitely WAS a raise and the dealer was correct.
He"s made it another 800 (on top of 1200) which is more than 50% of the previous raise and he"s therefore obligated to complete the raise.

14. String raises are not allowed. To protect your right to raise, you should either declare your intention verbally or place the proper amount of chips into the pot. Putting a full bet plus a half-bet or more into the pot is considered to be the same as announcing a raise, and the raise must be completed. (This does not apply in the use of a single chip of greater value.)
I stand corrected found this on the poker forum. I did say I may be wrong
Swinebag:
regardless of whether the dealer got it right or not, you seem to be suggesting that you should have just flat called his "raise" and let the oppo see the turn as you believe he intended.
I actually think you did the honourable thing and reraised to let him know that the turn wasn"t worth his while. Its not your fault he didn"t get the message.

This. I would have flatted and then tried to get more from him on the turn. As it turned out, that wasn"t necessary - but that"s being results focused.
