Default Re: Limit SNGs

You guys are thinking about this way to hard, or at least from the wrong point of view.

Think like a fish for a moment.

Where do you feel safest?
Playing Limit games.

Where do you feel unsafe ?
Surrounded by sharks.

Where are the sharks ?
NL STT, NL ring games, Limit ring games (larger stakes not so much micro or small)

So the fish in the open sea have been harrased by sharks until they go broke or learn how to play.

Perhaps limit SNG's are the equivalent of a sheltered place where the fish have become placid and weak. A place with no predators.

The way to win a game is to get the most of their chips. I imagine that more chips go into the pot in Limit they just go in smaller increments. Since your whole stack is not at risk the "let's see a flop" mentality probably is very common.

Plus as one other poster said, there is always someone who thinks it was NL and just bets to get out of there.

So they take forever ! Move up in buyin amount to compensate and see if it pays off.
