table each hand. The player to the left of the button has to post a "small
blind,"- a required bet that is 1/2 the lower limit bet. The player to the left
of this person has to post a "big blind" - a required bet which is equal to the
lower limit bet. As the limits increase, there size of these bets also
increases.
The betting is unlimited! |
