It's fine.

I love how NL players think they are so badass. It's not a more hardcore game just because you can bet it all.

Give 6 max NL100 on Party a try. It is fantastic!

It is hard to switch from limit to NL or the other way around. I tried limit last November and couldn't really beat 1/2 full table. I've never tried shorthanded limit tables, maybe they are easier.

I play NL tournies, but my ring game money all comes from limit games. To me, the NL ring games just seem very boring at times. It seems like you don't play any hands at all. I also don't understand why so many people prefer online NL ring games. A very important aspect of being a good NL player is being able to get reads on your opponents. It is extrememly hard to pickup any solid reads, except for betting patterns, in online ring games. I do prefer NL tournies though as they seem to satisfy that competetive drive that most people have.

eh, depends on the type of game. For ring online, i definately like the limit games better. Maybe its just because thats how i learned to play.
The casino by me just started a baby NL game. $100 max, 1/2 blinds. So far it hasn't been all that profitable for me, I think i'm down $50 overall, but its a very fun game to play in.

I would guess many limit players feel the same as you about NL. I do.
