Straddle -- How Much?

[Headhunter13]

Rootersod --
exactly! A straddle isn't the same as a dark bet since the action is still live. We had someone try to live straddle for more than twice the BB. We didn't let him, but I didn't have a good reason other than "I've never seen it done." (Of course, that didn't prevent him from dark-betting $50 UTG).

I didn't think it could be anything other than 2xBB for it to still be live, but wanted to check here.
