I’ve been playing poker for just some time now that’s why I exactly don’t understand what a low limit holdem is. Well, I’m not sure if it’s a part of fixed limit holdem or no limit holdem, or else both.

At some point, I thought it was low limit vs. no limit, thus implying that there’s a certain limit when it comes to the amount of money you can bet. I also thought it was a .25/.50 or $ 1/2 structure in a no limit game. Am I right with this or actually just making false conclusions?

By the way, is it possible in fixed limits to have low limit game?

Thank you.

Corbin,

Low limit holdem is a term used for lower stakes cash games in general. It doesn’t matter whether the game is Limit Holdem or No Limit Holdem. Most Limit Holdem cash games below $10 – $20 are considered low limit cash games. For No Limit Holdem, most games below $5 – $10 blinds are considered low limit.
