You can choose your bet sizes as in no limit, but the maximum you can bet or raise at any time is the amount currently in the pot.

[bsball8806]

Amount in the pot= amount in the pot+amount you put in to call the current raise (BB, raise, etc.)

Lets say you're playing .25/.50 PLO. If two people limp in, that makes a pot of 1.75. Your call makes the pot 2.25. You raise 2.25+your .50 call, bringing it to a total of 2.75.

Then why can I raise over the pot size preflop? And when somebody raises postflop can I raise over pot size aswell?

The total will be 1.75+2.75 = 4.5... you raise by 2.75 to 4.5.
