I don't know how it will develop but right now it is a 50/50 split on both choices after 10 votes.

Kinda amusing.

I hope the Chargers have the same attitude and look foolish.

Default Re: Well, my take

Beings that I have played both games seperate and apart from each other, I find that playing NL can be very boring for the most part. it does have moments where the heart really gets pounding, but its so much folding it can get very ho hum very quickly.

But, then again, Ive been playing a lot of 6 max 5-10 limit and 4 handed 5-10 on champs, so everything looks weak compared to those games.

6 max NL is pretty wild too simply because most times there is not a big hand out there. Position, bluffing and semi-bluffing can win you all the money without ever having a big hand.

I think you can play many more hands in NL than limit (full ring). In limit you sit around waiting for starting hands, in NL with large stacks you can limp and see cheap flops with almost anything at a passive table (especially if you are one of the best players in the game and can outplay others post-flop). Call raises with suited connectors and small pairs or even nothing if you have a read on a player and will be able to take down the pot if the flop misses the raiser. Play your position regardless of the cards. A good player can play many more hands in a NL game than a limit game. (not on party 50bb games)
