Flat Limit

Flat limit is a version of fixed limit in which all bets are the same size.

The simple explanation

In a flat-limit game, every bet and raise has the same size, on all streets. In regular fixed-limit hold'em, the later rounds use bigger bets. In flat limit, there is just one bet size.

A closer look

Flat-limit games do not change the bet size from one round to the next, unlike normal limit games. They are rare and mostly home-game structures.

A practical example

A home game uses a flat limit of $2: every bet and raise is $2.
