NLH stands for No Limit Hold’em, which is one of the most popular poker formats. In this format, players are not limited to using just one hand at a time.
This allows for more strategy and variety in gameplay.
The basic structure of a No Limit Hold’em tournament is as follows: there are typically a number of rounds, with each round consisting of a certain number of hands. In the first round, for example, players would play three hands. The second round would have two hands, and so on until the final round, which would have only one hand.
At the end of each round, the best hand (based on total points) from among all the players who participated in that round is awarded points and becomes the “pot”. Players can also “buy-in” to later rounds by sending in additional money.
In No Limit Hold’em, players can often bluff (intentionally mislead their opponents by making what could be seen as weak hands), which adds an extra layer of strategy to the game. Additionally, because there is no limit on how much money players can put in the pot at any given time, it can also create some very high-stakes games.
