Default Re: Trying to gear down/\"learn\" limit

also consider that if you are playing something like miller's small stack NL
type strategy that it makes the game a one or two betting round game
(pre flop and on the flop).

limit will force you to play post flop poker.

like the poster above me said it will be rare that you will not be getting ridiculous odds to call a turn or river bet, but it will only be one big bet. . .
if you missed your draw completely then you do not ever have pot odds to
call a bet, ever. in order for pot odds to be applicable you must have outs
to the best hand, getting 4 to One to lose no matter what is not a
calling situation. if you are losing a ton of money and feel like it's because you are calling off one big bet on the river with the worst of it then i think you need to evaluate the decisions you're making that are getting you that far in the hand.

also, limit need not be a passive game just because you can't bet 200 times
the big blind with only two cards out, good agression in limit can make the
game a gold mine.
