Basic one:
In NL the min bet does not double on the turn and river, does it?

Yes it does, that is why it is 2/4 holdem example:
Blinds 1 and 2, min bet pre-flop and on the flop 2, min bet on the turn and river 4

errr Geno, he CLEARLY said in NL.
In NL the minimum bet is ALWAYS the size of the big blind. It does NOT double on the turn or river. Also, re-raises must always be atleast the size of the original raise.
E.G. A four dollar raise must be met with atleast another re-raise of 4.

What about multiple reraises?
For example, UTG bets $1, next seat raises to $2, can the next seat raise to $3 (the size of the original bet) or must he raise to $4, the size of the bet behind him?
Or if UTG bets $1 and the next seat bets for $3 (raising $2), must the next bet increase by $1, $2, or $3?
Any clarification would be great, thanks.

The odd thing is that I've seen it played different ways. Certain poker sites double the BB as the minimum bet on the turn/river and certain sites don't.
Although in the casinos I've played in, they are just the BB on the turn/river.

I believe that you have to double the last bet (all-ins not included). I could be wrong... I thinks its happened before.

Yes. The raise must be equal to or more than the raise before.
E.g.
BB $1
Player A raises to $2
Player B may raise to $3 or more.
From Robert's Rules of Poker:
"1. The number of raises in any betting round is unlimited.
2. All bets must be at least equal to the minimum bring-in, unless the player is going all-in. (A straddle bet sets a new minimum bring-in, and is not treated as a raise.)
3. All raises must be equal to or greater than the size of the previous bet or raise on that betting round, except for an all-in wager. A player who has already checked or called may not subsequently raise an all-in bet that is less than the full size of the last bet or raise ."

Oui, wench is right. It's about the size of the person's RAISE not the size of their BET. So the 1 to 2 to 3 scenario is perfectly legitimate.

I just want to clairfy a little more, for myself.
Player A raises $1
Player B re-raises $10 to make it $11 to go.
Then if Player C wants to raise he must make it at least $21 to go.
Correct?

Correct. The raise must be equal to or more than the previous raise. Since Player B raised an increment of $10, Player C must then raise a minimum of $10 more in order for the raise to be legal unless he goes all-in for a lesser amount. In other words, if Player C only has $15 he can go all-in for that amount, but the pot can no longer be raised behind him.

This is exactly how it's played in my neck of the woods, and YES, it's NO LIMIT.

Are you sure?

I'm pretty sure that it's safe to say that it varies depending on where you play. So basically, as far as the double on turn/river goes, you should probably just make a house rule and stick by it.
