Pot Limit

In Pot Limit Omaha (most popular form of Omaha Poker), the maximum a player can bet is the amount that is in the pot. For example, a $100 bet into a $100 pot.

However, during the pre-flop, the maximum a player can bet is the amount that is in the pot excluding the ante. For example, if the total pot is $100 and $20 is an ante, the maximum a player can bet is $80 on top of the player's call amount.
