Quick Question

[HitmanHoldem]

I'm new to the web page so I was unclear of the acroynms used by forum members on this web page.

When someone refers to having won say 25 BB, how are you supposed to know how much that means? I'm going to assume that BB is equal to Big Blind or Big Bet, so wouldnt you need to know the limit they are playing to understand the amount they've won? Wouldn't 25 BB on 1/2 be worth $50 while 25 BB on 3/6 be worth $150?
