Fixed limit (poker)

In a poker game played with a fixed limit betting structure, a player never chooses the amount bet, only whether to bet or not, and the amount is fixed by rule. Commonly later betting rounds specify higher bets than earlier rounds; for example a four-round game called "20 and 40 limit" may specify that all bets on the first two rounds are $20, and on the third and fourth round $40. This amount applies to each raise, not the total amount bet in a round, so a player may bet $20, be raised $20, and then reraise another $20, for a total bet of $60, in such a game.
