Dictionary (courtesy of Party Poker)
Texas Hold 'em (also known as Hold 'em) is the most popular poker game
in the world. There are three variations of Texas Hold 'em,
distinguished by their betting limits:
- Limit
Texas Hold 'em: In
limit hold 'em betting is limited in each round. In
the first (pre-flop) and second (after the flop) rounds, the betting
limit is equal to to the big blind. In the third (after the
turn card) and fourth (after the river card) betting rounds the betting
limit is equal to double the big blind. Raising is usually
capped at four bets (a total of three raises), unless there are only
two players left in the pot in which case there is no cap.

Minimum
eligible raise:
The raise
amount must be at least as much as the previous bet or raise in the
same round. As an example, if the first player to act bets $100 then
the second player must raise a minimum of $100 (total bet of $200).
Maximum
eligible raise: The maximum
eligible raise equals the size of the
pot, which is defined as the total of the active pot (either the main
pot or the side pot depending on whether anyone has
gone “all-in”) plus all bets on the table plus the
amount the active player must first call before raising.
As an example, if the active pot is $200 and the first player to act in
the round bets $150 and the next player calls $150, the third player
has a maximum eligible total bet of $800. The $800 total is made up of
the $150 call and a $650 raise.
The $650 max raise portion is equal to the pot of $200
+ first player's
$150 + second player's $150 + the $150 call.
