Re: How many times can I raise in a live game?
[ QUOTE ]
Heads up: Until one of you runs out of chips.
3 or more players with chips: Either 4 or 5 bets ( initial bet plus 3 or 4 raises), depending on the club, is standard.
You get variations when the round did not start heads up.
When in doubt, keep raising (if you want to), they will let you know if you are 'over the cap'. If you don't want the other guy to put the extra raise in, ask the dealer "Wasn't it capped already?"
If the board is KQJT2 rainbow, Ax may be the nuts, but don't waste everybody's time by going 23 bets heads up (unless your opponent's seeing eye dog is outside).

That makes a lot of sense, but twice I've been in this exact situation (well not the deuce) and I've stopped after getting 3-bet since I figure we're chopping. I was up against a 9 once, and against two pair another time. At low limits its worth going at least 6 or 7 before stopping.
