Default Re: Live cash, meaning of 1/1/2, 1/3/5 etc

The first two examples are most likely button/sb/bb and the minimum bet preflop is is 2x the bb. Having the button post a blind encourages her to play. Increasing the bring in just jacks up the pot ensuring the house of a decent rake.

Not sure if you play online but live play at the lower levels, typically 3/6 limit and 1/2 NL are the lowest live, play much looser. In NL if you do a 3-4x bb raise preflop that is typical of online play, you'll still have 5-8 players call. So preflop raises tend to be in the $10-$15 range to thin the field down to 3-5.
