Below is a copy & paste from a sticky thread in the Learning Poker forum. I attempted to search for a clarification in another thread/post & was unsuccessful .
NL$25 (or $25NL)= The $25 refering to the MAX buyin for the specified game. The blinds are defined as being 1/100th of the max buyin. So nl$600 has a big blind of $6.

Please be patient with me, I started playing poker live so whenever a b&m peep says they play $3/$6 or $4/$8 or $1/$2 or $2/$5 I know they're referring to $3/$6 or $4/$8 Limit & $1/$2 or $2/$5 NLH. I brought this thinking into my thread/post-reading understanding...whenever I saw NL$25 (or $25NL) I figured the person was playing $25/$50 NLH but apparently $25NL identifies the max buy in? I'm okay with that but then how does nl$600 = $3/$6, if I'm reading the above description correctly...wouldn't it indicate the max buy in = $600 (or caps vs lower case differentiates between buy in & BB amt)?
Yes, I'm easily confused . I'm now guessing the peeps I thought were posting about $100NL may have been referring to $0.50/$1 games? Aaaaagh...please help (TYVM).
I also thought gg = good grief (but that's a personal issue).
