What do I have to know before playing Texas Hold'em in a casino?

November 18, 2008 : Posted by admin

I've been playing Hold'em for the past two years or so. I am going to Vegas in late April and am planning on playing at some Texas Hold'em tables and tournaments. I have a few questions:

1 - What does it mean for a no limit table when it is 2/4. I understand that the small blind is $2 and the big blind is $4, but do those amounts ever increase (at a sit-and-go table)? Is there a cap to how much can be bet at a time? Do the bets have to be in $4 intervals?

2 - Where can I find the lowest stakes tables for No Limit Hold'em? I am looking for $1/2 tables preferably.

3 - When at a 1/2 or 2/4 table, what is a good amount to buy in for? Is there usually a maximum amount that people can buy in for so that they cannot 'bully' other players out of hands?

4 - How does limit hold'em work? Please explain how the betting structure would work in a 2/4 limit game.

5 - Any other tips?

Sorry for the multiple questions. Thank you in advance for any help you can give me, I appreciate it

Know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em, know when to walk away, know when to run, never count your money when you're sittin' at the table, there'll be time enough for countin' when the evening's done.

    the only tip i can give you is that when someone puts a high bet down watch the expressions on their face and make sure there not bluffing because it could cost ya
