Default Re: Limit vs. No Limit?

"Crushing" winrate
in limit: 4ptbb/100 hands
in NL: 10ptbb+/100 hands
I think this higher winrate cap is the proof of NL having less variance.

NL is easier game because it is easier to manipulate pot odds, and cause worse players to make big mistakes and get the worst of it, where as in limit, it is hard to directly charge the worse players as hard since a bet in limit represents much smaller proportion of the pot...especially in multiway pots (10:1+ pot odd being common).

p.s)refer to pzhon's explanation on the 'real poker' comment [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]
