4-tier limit
The goal of 4-tier limit is to increase the skill
compotents relative to the luck in hold'em. After
35 years the theorists have been able to analyse
the game. They have been able to reduce the both
fixed limit and no limit to two card poker. The
intent of 4-tier limit is to increase the number
of decisions per hand. 4-tier limit will also
try to make each street have nearly equal effect
on a player's winrate.
In 4-tier limit the betting units would increase
every street. One unit for prf, two units for
the flop, four units for the turn, and ten units
for the first river bet.
First neutralize the effectiveness of playing tight.
Have three blinds rather than two. All blinds will
be big blinds. The button would also post a blind.
Preflop the action will start with the player to
the left of last big blind. He may open for one
or two units. The rest of the betting is like
regular fixed limit.
Always have at least three blinds each deal. If a
blind bust out or leave, move the button to the next
active player on the left, and have the two players
left of the new button position post blinds. New
players to the table may be dealt a hand by posting
a blind and a dead half blind.
On the flop the betting unit is two blinds or two
units.
On the turn the betting unit is four blinds.
The rules change drastically on the river. The
action will now start with the last aggressor.
That's the last player to bet or raise during this
hand. Check/raise will no longer be allowed. Each
player in turn is allowed to bet ten units. Raises
on the river will be twice the size of the previous
bet. In 4-tier most of the big action can only
occur after all the cards are dealt and the winner
is determined assuming he doesn't fold. This big
bet would also eliminate the automatic crying call
of fixed limit.
These changes would create a game more favorable
to strong post flop players.
