Limit holdem games are those games where the betting structure is controlled by lower and higher limits of betting.
In a $2/$4 game, at any point in time the lowest bet can be $2 and the highest bet can be $4. In some games, players are supposed to bet in only based on the lower limit of $2 for the first 2 rounds and all the raises and re-raises should be in increments of $2. In the next round they can make the big bet of $4 with having all the raises and re-raises in big bet increments.
