Pot limit Texas Holdem is a game played with a betting structure that allows any player to raise up to an amount equal to the size of the whole pot before the raise. For a typical example, let's assume that there is $10 in the pot at the start of a betting round. Player 1 may open the betting for up to $10. If he does in fact open for $10, Player 2 may raise to $40 (after calling the $10 bet, the total amount of the pot is $30, so he may raise $30). |
Player 3 would be entitled to raise to $140 (after calling $40, the pot would contain $100, thus he may raise $100). Any player may also raise less than the maximum so long as the amount of the raise is equal to or greater than any previous bet or raise in the same betting round.
Please understand that the above was a simple example to show you how pot limit texas hold'em works. However, many pot-limit games make exceptions to the above example. So you must be aware of the house rules before you sit down to play a pot limit game.
Pot Limit Texas Hold'em is not for everyone. Many players enjoy No Limit Hold'em as their game of choice. Some even choose Limit Texas Hold'em but this is a slower game than Pot or No Limit Hold'em.
My recommendation is to play both and discover for yourself what fits your style of play, your personality and your bankroll.
