You lost me with the $14. You'll have to explain that again. I don't play NL (but I think that should be obvious ).
Sorry, no prob. I just meant that when you have to call a bet, then make a raise, the pot size is no longer what is already in the pot before your call. So, on TN, when I push down on the stick to make a pot sized bet, it counts only what's in the pot before the call.
My example was just saying, that if I want to raise the pot before the flop, in a $2/4 NL game, my raise would be to $14 dollars. There would be $6 in the pot from small and big blind, and once I call the $4 big blind, (assuming nobody has already called or raised) there will now be $10 in the pot. So if I want to raise the pot, I will put in $10 more, or $14 total.
Or, say, if there's $20 in the pot on the flop, and somebody ahead of me bets $20. Now if I push the pot button on TN it will give me a raise to $60, but a pot sized raise would be to $80, b/c there will be $60 in the pot after my call, so i'd need to raise $60 more to make it a pot sized bet.
