Default Re: Limit SNGs

I think limit tourneys are probably the least natural thing to go play.

The poker you see on t.v. is tournament, and it's no limit.

People coming to online sites and starting to learn poker often try to get a handle on it by playing ring limit games, which is probably what they're more used to from home games, most of which are limit.

So you've got your tourney players and your ring players, and the thing they seem to have in commmon is that some of them are no limit players. But limit ring players probably don't gravitate to limit tourneys. If they go to tourneys, they mostly probably gravitate to what everyone else is always talking about and is on t.v., and even what's offered more at sites like Party -- no limit tourneys.

You have to almost perversely seek out limit hold'em tourneys, it seems to me. They're not quite as fun or as quick or as frequently offered etc etc. I think that's why they're not talked about much. Because there's not a natural play progression leading up to them.
