Anyone who has already collected more practice and experience, will deal with sooner or later versions Pot Limit and No Limit. However, this also includes the concepts of all-in and side pot. Because if you with his whole bankroll is sitting at the table, it may well be that this is also the risk.
Pot Limit
In pot limit is set by the amount of the operation by the amount of the pot. That is, are $ 50 in the pot, a player has the possibility of an amount (between the big blind (the minimum bet) and the pot the maximum bet) is, to offer.
An example to explain:
They play $ 1 / $ 2 PL Hold’em. The small blind is $ 1, the large $ 2 The first player has the opportunity to raise at least $ 2 to (so he must total $ 4) in the pot to play the amount of the pot, or an amount between these two. The amount of the pot in this case, $ 7 – the small blind is $ 1, the big blind is $ 2, the call $ 2 – together and you get $ 5 for the pot. So the call ($ 2) and Raise ($ 5), so the player must pay $ 7 to raise the pot. If he decides the next player may also raise the pot to play, so he can raise by $ 24 – small blind $ 1, big blind $ 2, raise $ 7, call $ 7 – a total of $ 17 The re-raise also makes $ 24 off – $ 17 for the pot and $ 7 for the call. Be the re-raise in Pot-Limit must be at least twice as high as the last raise. If the player does not have enough money for a re-raise, he can go all-in. The bet must be at least as high as the big blind, also applies here – the player has not enough money for a bet, he can go all-in.
No Limit
In no limit the player has the ability, all the money he has put before him, no matter how high the pot. However, there are minimum amounts – the small bet before and after the flop, the big bet from the turn. Be the re-raise in no limit must be at least twice as high as the last raise. If the player does not have enough money for a re-raise, he can go all-in. As in pot-limit bet must be at least as high as the big blind. If a player is not enough money for a bet, he can go all-in.
All-in and side pot
It is not possible that a player is eliminated from a hand because he has too little money. Through the so-called all-in he stays with his work and commitment, yet in the pot, he can also win as much as he has used. If more than 2 players involved in this pot, a side pot is formed.
Example:
Player A goes all-in with $ 50, player B pays the $ 50, Player C goes all-in with $ 200, Player B goes with his remaining $ 50 all-in. In this case a side pot is formed. The Mainpot includes that money, which player A can win (his $ 50 and $ 50 from each player B and C). In the side pot of money that comes when a player does not share more. ($ 50 from $ 150 from player B and player C). Of player C is $ 100 too much in the side pot, they can win either Player A or Player B. Holds after the showdown, the player A winning hand, so he can win the Mainpot in the amount of $ 150 The side pot ($ 100) goes to player B, or C, whichever is the next best hand. $ 100 will be reduced in each case to Player C, as they too were in the side pot. Player C wins with the best hand, he gets the side pot $ 150, the Mainpot with $ 100 and the remainder of his $ 100
