How do you have an account that has been open less than 45 days?

I don't play very much, so I used to have only one account (Paradise - started in 2001). But I've been looking to get into stud, and Party was the way to go for that. I opened the account in late August.

Edit: And now I might open a PokerStars account to play in the HU league. I seriously doubt I'm going to have more than these three accounts... too much stuff to track.

[Fryguy]

I've got a party account that's been unused for a while, never put in the initial deposit. From what I understand the 45 day period starts from the point that you activate your real money account, so in december when I am off from school for a month, I plan on going nuts on these beginner tables for 30 days straight.

Are there beginner limits other than .50/1?

[NateDog]

I think it stops at 1/2. It used to go way up there, maybe 5/10 or so, but not so anymore

There are 4 limits: .15/.30, .25/.50, .50/1, and 1/2.

Your understanding of the tables sounds correct.

That hand made me laugh out loud. I can practically hear Button thinking, "What a sucker... he doesn't realize I have two pair!"
