Pot Limit - Raising...



Posted Fri Feb 13, 2004 1:32 am GMT by ORGrinder
was currious how raises work in a pot limit game. i've never played pot-limit so i don't know... but have an idea... i just wanted to verify.

let's say there's 50 bucks in the pot. your first to act. you can bet a max of 50... and you do.

so second position wants to raise... they can call your 50, and now raise 50 right? (the orig 50 + position 1's 50).

then position 3 could call the 100 (orig 50 = position 1's 50) and raise 100 right?

am i on the right track here?

Im not sure either but i think If tehres 50 in the pot and first to act raises 50, Next to act can raise 100. His 50 plus the pots 50. Once you bet its pot money.....I think

fyi

pot limit, 50 in the pot...you are first....

you may bet a max 50...that's the easy part...

the man to you right may CALL the 50...and then RAISE the entire, current, pot. He may raise 150! The man to his left must call 200. If he does there is now 500 in the pot...and he can raise 500!

....And up and up it goes! See what you started?
