Once you know how to play limit Omaha high, limit Omaha Hi/Lo and limit
Hold'em, the rules for Pot Limit are very easy to learn. The difference
between regular limit games and Pot limit games is when it comes to the
betting amounts. The betting rules are simple:
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 $10 then the second player must raise a minimum of $10
(total bet of $20).
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 $20 and the first player to act in the
round bets $15 and the next player calls $15... the third player has a
maximum eligible total bet of $80. The $80 total is his $15 call and $65
raise. The $65 max raise portion is equal to the pot of $20 + first
player's $15 + second player's $15 + his own call of $15. There is no cap
to the number of raises in Pot Limit games.
When playing at Paradise you have a betting "slider" which allows you to
bet many amounts between the minimum and maximum allowable bet size.
At each Pot Limit table there is a Maximum Buy-In amount. Paradise
currently has four different maximum buy-in amounts of $50 to $400 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.
Pot Limit games can be thrilling and for newer players we recommend
getting familiar with the large betting amounts at the Tournament tables
where you can better control the amount of money you wish to risk.
