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.

It's so more hardcore man. They show it on TV.

No it's not a more hardcore game just because you can bet it all, it's a more hardcore game because you can manipulate the odds, position plays a far more important role, opponents stack sizes are serious considerations that need to be taken into account, good reads on players are necessary. I've played both and I really believe that no-limit is a much more complex game. Limit really is more of a science where as no-limit, at its best, can be an art.

No, I obviously didn't think that up, though I still believe it's true. There is much more to take into consideration and much more room to maneuver. I play and enjoy both games, but I definitely feel that no-limit is far more complex and was just stating that opinion.

Only the stupid ones think they are so badass / better than limit players.

Like take your average baby NL game at a casino, where you can find 50 year old men jumping up and down and banging the table like monkeys.

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.
