Pot-limit describes a betting structure in poker where the maximum bet at any time equals the current size of the pot.
It sits between no-limit (bet any amount) and fixed-limit (bet predetermined amounts): pot-limit Omaha, a pot-limit game.
Players must calculate the pot before raising, making it more complex than other formats.
