1. Online Poker for Real Money: Guide to Betting Limits
You want to play online poker for real money right? Let us show you the
basic betting limits so you

As you know, all poker games, whether land-based or online poker for real
money, are based on the
amount of money players wager on every round of play. So, it doesn't
matter if it’s Texas Holdem,
Seven-Card Stud or Omaha, everything is based on the pot. The process
of structuring a poker game
over the bet is called setting ‘limits.’
There are three kinds of poker limits: the no limit, limit and the pot limit.
To be able to play online poker for real money, you must understand how
each limit works. A player
chooses a table based on the limits set by the players. So, here’s a brief
introduction to poker betting
limits and may this article help you play and win online poker for real
money.
The Limit Poker
This is the typical type of poker betting limit you will see both in land-based
2. casinos and online
casinos. The limit usually pertains to figures such as 2/4, which is for Texas
Holdem, and 5/10 for
the Omaha game. When you play Holdem or Omaha, the wagers in the first
two rounds are the first
number and the wager on the last two turns refer to the second number. On
the other hand, in a 7-
card stud, the first number is the limit for the two rounds in the beginning,
while the second number
pertains to the betting limit on the last trio of rounds.
The Pot Limit Poker Betting
If limit is the typical poker betting, poker limit is the most popular form of
betting. When players
agree to do a pot limit, each of the gamblers on the table is allowed to bet
any amount that is up to or
equal the size of the poker pot.
Some poker beginners or those who are not so familiar with pot limit can
get confused, specifically
on who determines the amount of money (and the maximum amount) for
the pot. Just remember
that when a player places a bet in the pot, it should have the total which
includes the amount of a
previously called bet. An example will be if the post size is 10 and a player
put his bet of 5, the next
gambler has the choice to fold, call the wager of 5 or raise it to 20 (the
maximum size of the pot so
far). The computation of the maximum pot size is 10 plus 5 plus the call 5
totaling 20.
No Limit
This is the type of betting used in televised poker events. There are only
two rules with regards to
the limits guideline. When a player raises ot must be at the very least the
3. size of previous bet on the
round of wagering. So any bet has to be as huge as the big blind.
