Rule clarification

[Lizard]

Ok situation is sb 50 bb 100 a player raises to a 1000 next player wants to re raise what’s the minimum he can re raise?
Is it 900 therefore making the bet 1900?
Or 100 making the bet 1100?

min re rasie would be up to 2k i belive only way it could be less than a double raise if player who re raisers is all in. i think i am right.

I would have thought the minimum raise from the next player could be 1800.

If the player has raised to 1000 total, then the raise was infact 900. That being so the next player to act must raise (at a minimum) to 1900... the raise of 900 + 100 the next raise must be 900 more + one big blind.

so, image the scenario but forget the big blind... thats the easiest way to do it.

1000 (900 + BB) Raise A
1900 (900 + 900 + BB) Raise B



I think i have made this complicated hehe.

Its so good to know that even TD's can't agree on the rules!!!!!! Hey Lizard, good to see you were on to this one first thing!!!

[Nathan Butler]

If you could private message me on the matter. I will resolve it.

all of these betting rules do my head in (prolly coz i learnt to play poker online, so these aren't things i learn't early)

what nathan is saying is that u dont have to double the chips out there due to a blind, only the extra shoved in.

this has big implications when the blinds are 1K/2K for instance

min raise is to 4K. then, if someone wants to raise again, they only have to go to 6K, not 8K (i hope this is right)

[Luke05(Jamo)]

gotta go to 8k benny the cunt
