Question 1:
You are playing PL $0.10/0.25 fullring. All stacks are ca $25. You are in the CO, and three players have limped before you. You want to raise potsize, how big is the bet?
c) There is already 1.5BB in the pot from the blinds as well as 3BB from the 3 limpers, which means the pot total is 4.5BB. The amount to call is 1BB, so a potsize raise here would be 4.5BB + 2* 1BB = 6.5BB = 1.6$
Question 2:
You are playing PL $ 0.25/0.50 Fullring. The stacks are all between $40 and $50 and you are in the SB. The BU open-raises to 3.5BB / $1.75, and you want to raise. How big would a potsize raise be?
a) There is already 1.5BB in the pot from the blinds, then comes 3.5BB from the BU. The amount to call from the SB would be 3BB (you already have 0.5BB invested in the blind). Thus a potsize raise would be 5BB + 2* 3BB = 11BB = 5.5$
Question 3:
You are playing PL $0.5/1, Fullring. The stacks are all between $70-120 and you are on the BU. Preflop: UTG limps, you limp, and both blinds limp. On the flop, SB bets 4BB = $4, BB folds, UTG calls, you want to raise potsize. How big will the bet be?
b)
There is 4BB in the pot from the preflop round, plus SB's 4BB bet and UTG's call. The amount to call is 4BB, so a potsize raise would be 12BB + 2*4BB = 20BB = 20$.
