Limit vs. No Limit?

[RustyCJ]

I have about 50k hands worth of limit play under my belt and only about 15 Sit'N'Go's played. I've also played some $25 NL.

When I first read your post I immediately thought of Sklansky's book "Tournament Poker for AP" - In the intro, on pages 5 and 7, he says this book is intended for people who "know how to play poker well" and "have a good understanding of standard ring game poker".

I know there are people who start out playing tourneys and never look back.

I guess my thought is that to be the best poker player I can be, I need to learn limit poker, get an understanding of the value of each hand and how it plays, build a roll and proceed from there.

I have also played some .5/1 and 1/2 6 max limit games, they are much more aggressive and there is lots to be learned in 6 max play and plenty of money to be made.

For me, I'm starting with limit play and I'll play tourneys later on.

I think it also depends on your style and what suits you best.
