another definition needed
when referring to the stakes of a NL game what does "$25NL" or whatever number mean ($400NL etc.) Is that the cap on the buy in for the table?

You answered your own question [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
It is worth knowing that different sites have different blind structures for apparently the same limit, so just because something says "Do this at the $25NL on siteA" it doesn't always hold true that you should do it at siteB with different sized blinds. Lori |

Re: another definition needed
I too wonder about what "$25NL" means, and I agree with OP that a definition is actually needed. His conjecture was this is the maximum buy-in amount, as opposed to the minimum buy-in amount. So which is it? You make the point that $25NL might mean different blind structuring on different internet poker sites, suggesting nomenclature of $25NL is a somewhat deficient description of a game! Would you kindly extend your remarks?

Re: another definition needed
NL just refers to the max-buyin.
You'll need to go to the site to know what the blind structure is. But at party the blind structure at the 25NL tables is .10/.25, meaning you can buyin for 100 BBs. |

Re: another definition needed
$25 NL means you can't buyin for more than $25, or top up your stack to more than $25 at any one time.
Of course, you may win a pot that takes you over $25. That is fine. Because so many people play with the same (.1/.25) blind structure, it is rarely a problem to describe, but there are places with different blind structures so it is far from a perfect description. There is usually a minimum buyin of around $5 for a $25 game. Lori |
