Page "Betting in poker" Paragraph 43

: For example, Alice is playing at a table with 10 players in a tournament with an ante of $ 1 and blinds of $ 4 /$ 8.

Alice is due the big blind but she only has $ 8.

She must pay the $ 1 ante and apply the remaining $ 7 towards the big blind, and she is all in.

Bob, next to act, calls $ 8, the full big blind amount.

Carol raises to $ 16 total.

All remaining players fold, the small blind folds, and Bob folds.

The amount in the main pot is $ 10 ( the sum of all antes ) plus the full $ 4 small blind since Alice had this amount covered, plus $ 7 from Alice and every other player who called at least that amount, namely Bob and Carol.

The main pot is therefore $ 10 + $ 4 + 3 *$ 7
