Played a 5 hour 20 minute session yesterday and shipped a $1 win. Don't be jelly, it's unbecoming.

Found myself playing plolololol again. This is becoming a habit.

Question for the plolol peeps because I never heard (or realized) this as I’m still very green into the world of plololol….

In a casino 2/2 w BTN straddle to 5. SB acts first, they round up to $5 increments here when potting

Sb 20 pot 20
Bb fold (so 5 for calc purposes) pot 25
HJ calls 20 pot 45
CO calls 20 pot 65
BTN pot 105 pot 170
SB calls 105 pot 275
HJ pots pot 275+105 call = 380 + raise of 380 = 760

Could be wrong I guess but this is how I learned it

I double counted SB and HJ chips above, but there's no reason that any particular chip in the pot wouldn't be counted

Sb 20 pot 20
Bb fold (so 5 for calc purposes) pot 25
HJ calls 20 pot 45
CO calls 20 pot 65
BTN pot 105 pot 170
SB calls 105 pot 255
HJ pots pot 255+85 call = 340 + raise of 340 = 680


Surely it’s 85 (he already has 20 of the 105 in) plus the new pot total = 340 so total bet 425?


that's counting the 85 call twice, I think.

It would be 425 in the pot, if HJ clicked it back with a min-raise. But HJ pots, so HJ's pot sized raise is the pot coming to HJ (255) plus HJ's call of the raise to HJ (85) = 340 * 2


I think I got this all wrong and would like to retract my above posts.
