Why choose Limit over No-Limit?

[boose_bagina]

Hi, I know this forum is pretty Limit oriented in terms of what its members play, but I play NL exclusively and do very well at it. I was wondering however, what the draw is to playing Limit over No Limit for you guys (or even vice-versa)? Is it that Limit is more math/statistic oriented? Too much variance in NL? etc...Thanks guys

For me it's limit becuase of all the books on the game. That's what I've learn to play and do very well. I do want to branch out but researching very slowly. Hard to stop playing limit for a new game when I avg. $135 per hour playing one table at a time.

This forum is very bonus oriented (or did you mean 2+2 in general?)

Much easier to multitable limit.
Apparantly less variance in NL though.
More decisions in limit = more advantage for people who make many small decisions correctly.

theses more variance in limit poker actually
in limit, better ability to apply the FTOP

does that stand for [censored] theory of poker?

"More decisions in limit = more advantage for people who make many small decisions correctly."

NL allows more opportunity to punish the mistakes of opponents??

No limit can't last forever, eventually the game's gonna crash because it busts the bad players too damn fast. Limit is long run.

wow what an enlightening thread. I always play no limit but may rethink my position after reading this thread. I only played it before when that was all a site offered (Crypto and PAcific)

I still like NL tourneys over limit though. Limit takes too long.

$135/hour on limit poker single table... Which limit do you play??
