		After seeing lots of pot limit poker in the past few weeks, I thought it would be good to provide some general advice to pot limit players who will make the transition to limit cash game poker.
		In pot limit, you have the luxury of making this play because you can make a bet that your opponent simply can't call, even if their read is correct.

	Betting (poker) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		For example, in a $2-$4 limit game, the first player to the dealer's left (who, if not for the blinds, would be the first to act) makes a blind bet of $1, and the next player in turn posts a big blind of $2.
		For example, a four-round game called "20 and 40 limit" (usually written as $20/$40) may specify that each bet in the first two rounds is $20, and that each big bet used in the third and fourth rounds is $40.
		After the side pot is awarded, the all-in player then shows his hand, and if it is superior to all others shown, he wins the main pot (otherwise he loses as usual).

	COMPARING POT LIMIT WITH LIMIT
		Naturally, a pot grows in size as a deal progresses, so the betting limit after all the cards are out is usually far greater than it was at the start of that deal.
		The pot odds offered the opponent will normally be between 2-1 (for a full-pot bet) and 3-1 (for a half-pot bet).
		At limit play, winning with a super-class hand increases the amount you have won by several extra bets, but one bet is only a fraction of the pot size.

		When the amount of chips in the pot is fairly large compared to the amount of chips in players' stacks, it is much harder to bluff them off of mediocre holdings.
		The bluff is much more of a factor in no-limit than in limit, because the size of your bet can be significant compared to the size of the pot.
		The reason for this is that if you enter a pot for less you will often find yourself having to call a bet anyways, being pot-committed, and you want to give yourself the best chance of winning right away.
