Re: Permutations

The betting rounds are different and Texas is considered to be the best and most difficult.

Re: Permutations

Limit, pot-limit and no-limit. They are three very different games.

Re: Permutations

Not too many people like Pot-Limit, most prefer Limit and No-Limit. Limit refers to how much can be bet at any single time.

Re: Permutations

The so called world championship uses NO-Limit because they mistakenly believe that is the most skillful and difficult form.

Re: Permutations

I think Stolz might be of more use here, considering the discreteness of the problem.

Re: Permutations

Limit is not a math limit, it means the bets are fixed like 10 dollars and 20 dollars.
