Title: Pot Limit Post by: Indestructable on August 22, 2006, 06:42:15 PM Can i get some advice on Pot limit.
First on the betting. Using this as an example payer A SB 20 Player B BB 40 Player C calls 40 My turn and I want to make the biggest bet possible. I make this 180 made up from 40 to call plus the pot so far 100 plus my 40. (40+100+40) Does this make sense not sure if describing right. Also are there any threads on the site that give general advice on pot limit and the type of hands to play/avoid. Title: Re: Pot Limit Post by: snoopy1239 on August 22, 2006, 07:05:48 PM That makes sense.
Just times the small blind by 7 and add on any limpers. Title: Re: Pot Limit Post by: Indestructable on August 22, 2006, 07:23:42 PM That was it Tikay had told me before but I thought he said 3 times blind which I never understood. :blonde: Now it makes sense, must listen more carefully next time.

If you want to raise the pot I thought you could count your call as part of the pot before calculating the raise. Therefore 20+40+40+40+140. Title: Re: Pot Limit Post by: Indestructable on August 22, 2006, 08:06:33 PM Just tried a pot limit stt on party and won it. No idea if it was because I knew what i was doing or just that i am a lucky ;fish;

Nice result Ed :) Title: Re: Pot Limit Post by: snoopy1239 on August 22, 2006, 08:53:58 PM Oh dear, I thought it was different.

He calls 40, then raises the pot, which is 20+40+40+40 = 40+20+40+40+40 = 180 Title: Re: Pot Limit Post by: GlasgowBandit on August 22, 2006, 09:05:41 PM Both are right.
In oth examples your betting a 180. Title: Re: Pot Limit Post by: LeKnave on August 23, 2006, 10:26:32 AM Yes both are right....
Just one says bet 180 The other states, call 40 and raise 140.... Title: Re: Pot Limit Post by: Enzyme_ on August 23, 2006, 10:48:55 AM Can i get some advice on Pot limit. First on the betting.
