Ok, I am new but learning. I was looking for some more in depth articles about betting. Such as if I go all in with 25 after someone went all in with there 100, how does that all work?

Assuming your the only two in the hand, he would take back 75 to match your bet of 25. If there are more people in the hand, you can only win as much from each player as you put in. They can continue to bet against each other. But you could only win 25 from each player regardless of how much they bet.

To throw out another example:
Player A: $25
Player B: $50
Player C: $75
Player D: $100
All of them go all-in
Main pot: $100 ($25 each from players ABCD)
Side pot 1: $75 ($25 each from players BCD)
Side pot 2: $50 ($25 each from players CD)
Player D gets $25 back (no one could cover the remainder of his bet)
If these were the hands...
Player A: 
Player B: 
Player C: 
Player D: 
Board is: 
Player C would win Sidepot 2 with his 2 pair
Player B would win Side pot 1 with his 3 of a kind
Player A would win the main pot with his Royal Flush
Player D would go postal and kill everyone within reach... but thats the way it goes.

Smithers, use the amnesia ray.
You mean the revolver, sir?
Precisely.
