The last raise permitted on a betting round. 2, record 2, English, - cap
Record number: 2, Textual support number: 1 CONT
In Fixed Limit games, each round of betting has a maximum number (three) of allowable raises, known as the cap. So, if a bet is made, that bet can only be raised three times, after which all players must call, or fold. However, if only two players remain in the hand the cap is increased, to a maximum of 5 raises. This rule is in effect for all the betting rounds, with the idea being to speed up play. 3, record 2, English, - cap

There is no cap to the number of raises in No Limit Hold'em games. 4, record 2, English, - cap
