If
you are familiar with the rules for Limit Poker, you will not
need to learn too much more to understand the rules for Pot-Limit
Poker. If you are not familiar with our Limit Poker rules click
here to read them and then return to the Pot-Limit Poker section.
The
Betting Rules :
-
Minimum
eligible raise: The raise amount must be at least as much
as the previous bet or raise in the same round. As an example,
if the first player to act bets $100 then the second player
must raise a minimum of $100 (total bet of $200).
-
Maximum
eligible raise: The size of the pot. The size of the pot
is defined as the total of the Pot in the middle plus all
bets on the table plus the amount the active player must first
call before raising. As an example, the pot in the middle
is $200 and the first player to act in the round bets $150
and the next player calls $150... the third player has a maximum
eligible total bet of $800. The $800 total is his $150 call
and $650 raise. The $650 max raise portion is equal to the
pot of $200 + first player's $150 + second player's $150 +
his own call of $150.

Methods
to bet:
When playing on Texas-Hold-em-poker.biz, you will have three methods of
betting to use:
-
The
bet button- Just like in a Limit Poker Game, you can click
the bet button, which will display the minimum amount you
can bet or raise.
-
The
bet box- The bet box is a text box that allows you to
type in the exact amount you want to bet or raise. Once you
have entered the amount to bet or raise, the bet button will
reflect this amount. Then click the bet button and your bet
will be placed.
-
The
slider- The slider is a device that you can use with your
mouse to increase or decrease the amount of your bet or raise.
Simply drag the bar on the slider to the amount of money you
want to bet or raise. As you slide, the bet amount will be
reflected on the bet button. When you find the amount you
want to bet or raise, simply click the bet button and your
bet will be made
At
each Pot-Limit table there is a Maximum Buy-In amount. Texas-Hold-em-poker.biz
currently has three different maximum buy-in amounts of $25 and
$50 in order to ensure all players have an opportunity to be competitive
at Pot Limit without having to compete against players with thousands
of dollars in front of them.
