| Side Pot Amount Calculation Problem ============================== Problem 1: Below is the betting round which went in a poker (Texas Hold'em). Please suggest me the values of Main pot and Side pots in respective bet rounds. Problem 2: I have placed '*' on some bets where I am not sure what possible actions can be performed by the player, when on bet. Please suggest me what action (Call/Raise) a player can play in these scenarios? | Plr 1 ($200) Plr 2 ($498) Plr 3 ($800) Plr 4 ($800) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ROUND 1 | $100 (Bet) $200 (R Bet) $200 (Calls) $200 (Calls) ROUND 2 | $100 (All In) $200 (R Bet)* $200 (Calls) $200 (Calls) ROUND 3 | - $98 (All In) $98 (Calls)* $100 (Raise)* ROUND 4 | - - $100 (Bets) $100 (Calls) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ||

| | Plr 1 ($200) Plr 2 ($498) Plr 3 ($800) Plr 4 ($800) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ROUND 1 | $100 (Bet) $200 (R Bet) $200 (Calls) $200 (Calls) >>>Moz: Player 1 must call the raise and go all-in here. This puts $800 in the main pot. All future betting goes in side pots. ROUND 2 | $100 (All In) $200 (R Bet)* $200 (Calls) $200 (Calls) >>>Moz: Player 1 is already all-in from round 1. This round should look like this: | - $100 (Bet) $100 (Call) $100 (Call) - Main pot: $800, Side pot: $300 ROUND 3 | - $98 (All In) $98 (Calls)* $100 (Raise)* >>>Moz: Should look like this: | - $100 (Bet) $100 (Call) $200 (Raise), then Player 2 calls $98 of the raise to go all-in. There is now $896 in the first side pot and $4 in the second side pot (between only players 3 and 4) ROUND 4 | - - $100 (Bets) $100 (Calls) >>>Moz: This round is ok. The pots now look like this: Main pot: $800, Side pot 1(players 2,3&4): $896, side pot 2(players 3&4): $204. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -Moz "Yeah, I've made up your mind." | ||

| ... easiest way to keep it straight- a) when someone is all-in, match a like amount from the other calls and put that in the existing pot. b) remainder goes in the new side pot. | ||

| This sounds like Mandeep. How to solve this is easy. Instead of thinking of cases, think of it like this. I ever a player would try to call for more than his whole stack then there is a sidepot created for the amount over the whole stack. So if player 1 has 100 and players 2 and 3 each have 200 and player 2 bets 120 and player 3 calls that and player 1 calls all in then there is a main pot with 300 and a side pot with 40 that players 2 and 3 are elligible for. If instead the bet is 100 then there is a main pot of 300 and no sidepot yet since no extra money has been bet over what player 1 has. | ||
