Hey, I'm trying to learn PLO, I just got a hang of using only two of the cards in my hand. Now my casino it let us run it twice. My question is I don't know how quarter pot is calculated?

Examples:

Two players all in..

Pot is 355

Player 1 all in for 275
Player 2 calls

Board runs out.. Player 1 wins first board. Second board both players tie.

Who gets what?? Sorry if this is a newb question. I'm still very new.

So final pot is 355 + 275 + 275 = 905.

Player 1 wins 452.50 for the first board.
The players chop 452.50 for the second board and get 226.25 each.

So player 1 ends up with 678.75 and player 2 with 226.25.

It's a casino. You don't get fractions of a dollar in live poker.

For running it twice, you divide the pot into two even amounts. If there are odd chips, the first pot gets the extra chip. The winner of the first time you run it gets the first pot. The winner of the second time gets the second pot.

Depending on house rules, the pots are either 455 and 450 or 453 and 452. Player 1 gets the first pot and half of the second pot. Player 2 gets the rest.

Apart from the casinos where you do.



But good point, some will round to the nearest unit when splitting pots.

Also when chopping a pot in half, if there is a leftover dollar it goes to the in position player.
