Limit 5 Card Stud Poker Rules
This game is a game where there is a betting limit which in turn means that when raising a bet made, you can only bet double the bet. A different strategy is needed when playing Limit Holdem as bluffing (especially in low stakes) becomes more difficult because a player can call your bet only at the price of the bet or raise (minimal risk to their stack). In no limit bluffing is easier as players know that calling a raise could cost him/her their entire bank role.
Fixed-Limit poker games will have two limit amounts specified. This could be $2/$4 or $20/$40. Look at the $20/$40 game- the small blind will be $20 and the big blind will be $40. These are the compulsory bets that must be made before play begins. If this was a limit game then bets after the blinds had been met would be $20 and raises would be $40 (maximum)- the only exception in a limit game would be if a player bets $20, the next player raises (to $40) and a third raise occurs- this would then be a raise for twice the bet, now $80.
