Best nano limit sites to play
A friend of mine has been asking me to teach him poker and I finally agreed. I'm going to start him off playing limit, and was curious to know what some of the best places to play nano limit holdem would be? When I say best, I mean easy to beat. He doesn't know much about poker. We want to primarily start with .10/.25 maybe even .05/.10
Thanks for the help!

I'd go with stars, although Instant Bankroll over at party is a good way to start without investing any of your own money, except it's possible he could bust with the $75 if he doesn't know how to play.

Definitely start him at Stars .05/.10. If he has no clue about poker, start him at .02/.04. That's where I started. He can apply SSH very well to those games, because the average pot size is about 15 BB's.

Re: Best nano limit sites to play
I play Stars .05/.10 -- played a few hundred hands at .02/04. He'll be able to move from .02/.04 fairly quickly if he's studying. I haven't seen an average of 15BB pots at .05/.10, but usually an average of anywhere from 7-11BB. I think you have to deposit $50 minimum at Stars, don't know if there are any rooms with lower mins.
I started at UB .01/.02, but at the time they didn't have any tables between that and .25/.50 (at least, I couldn't find any -- that's actually what made me open a Stars account). Looks like now they do have .02/.04 and .05/.10, but not as much selection as Stars. Oh, and I thought .01/.02 was a waste of time....it was A LOT like the play money tables (7 people to the river was not uncommon). I was pleasantly surpised that there was a noticeable difference between .01/.02 and .02/.04. Since I'm bagging on UB a little, I will say that as a plus they have $1.10 SNG NLHE tourneys which have been a fun way to try to learn NL. So if he wants to learn NL tourneys as well, cheap sit-n-go's might be something to look for also (Stars cheapest SNG is $5, I believe).
