Joker Johnny bought into a No Limit Holdem 6 max ring game for one hundred times the big blind. Joker Johnny lost two pots to Donkey Dan in which he had to call a three times the big blind raise from his big blind. He missed the flop, was bet into and folded. He folded all other hands including his small blinds. Joker Johnny now has eighteen hundred and sixty dollars left, at what limit is Joker Johnny playing?
**************************************************************************************
If you said that Joker Johnny is playing at $10/$20 limits and bought in for $2000, then you are correct.

Be interested to see your answer on this because they will be the start of the discussion.
Is it 10 dollar 20 dollar?
is it $500/$1000 NL phil ivey deathmatch?
1860 = 100b - nb, n is the number of BB, b is the BB
What is n? It is at least 6.5BB (2 x 3BB +1 SB) if he waits for BB. It might be one SB higher = 7BB - if we analyze this just b4 his next big blind. Otherwise if he buys in,without waiting, it will be one BB higher. So n can be 6.5,7, 7.5 or 8.
The only reasonable answer assuming the Casino doesn't work in fractions is 7 for a 10/20 blind. 3BB, SB, 3BB, SB.
