Spread limit in WA is somewhere between normal fixed limit (FL) and no limit (NL). Take a 3/5 game (Snoqualmie seems to call them "no limit" games while Muckleshoot calls them spread limit) for example. Blinds are $3 and $5, with the buyin being whatever the room decides. Like in NL, you can raise any random amount you want over the big blind size,
but the maximum raise would be $500. So preflop if you're first in, you can raise to anything between $10 and $505. The other difference between this game and standard no limit is that there is a four bet cap on each street (similar to FL).
The $500 limit applies at the tribal casinos; elsewhere it is $100, which you'll usually see with $1 and $2 blinds.

I've been at Snoqualmie playing $4/$8 FL, and heard them tell people they were running both 2/5 and 3/5. The 3/5 had a bigger max buyin than the 2/5, but I don't remember the particulars or which day of the week it was. Supposedly they also run a 5/10 game on some day of the week...
