| Pot bet question Just a bit of a trivial question, when you bet 'pot', are there different rules as to what constitutes the pot preflop and postflop? On fulltilt when I click the 'pot' button things get a bit weird. Preflop: 90 in pot - pot button gives me 210 120 in pot - pot button 280 Postflop: a pot bet is just the pot Cheers. |

| Betting the pot is exactly that, but it includes calling any previous bets made that round. Example post flop pot=20 2 way pot: Scenario 1: You are first to act betting pot = 20 (total pot is now 40) Scenario 2: You are 2nd to act villain bets 5, You need to call 5 then bet pot of 30 (you need to put 35 in to bet pot) (total pot is now 60) Scenario 3: you are 2nd to act Villain checks, betting pot = 20 (total pot is now 40) 3way pot: Scenario 4: You are last to act, Villain 1 bets 10, Villain2 calls, to bet pot you need to call then bet the total so 20+10+10+10= 50. So you need to call 10 and raise 50 ( you need to put 60 in to bet pot) (total pot is now 100) Hope that helps Edit to add: And preflop you need to consider the small blind and big blind as a bet and a raise for pot calculation in a 3+ way pot I wish FT would remove the bet pot button. |
