Improper Fold-up If a player decides to drop out of the pot or fold up, he cannot give an indication of this, verbal or otherwise, until it is his proper turn of play. Should he fold up out of turn, his hand is dead. Strict observance of this rule makes for a better game.
Optional Betting Limits at Draw Online Hold'em Poker The most popular betting limits are as follows: 1. Penny to 5 cents, 5 to 10 cents, 25 to 50 cents, $1 to $2, $2 to $4, $5 to $10, etc. Only two amounts are specified, the minimum and the maximum permitted; which means that at a player's turn of play he must conform with one of the following rules: (a) A player cannot bet an amount less than the minimum limit. (b) A player cannot bet an amount larger than the maximum limit. (c) A player may bet any amount between both limits. (d) The ante is usually 20% to 25% of the minimum bet, except in penny ante, and 5 to 10 cents limit where the ante usually equals the minimum bet.
