Re: Going to try playing live 1/2 for a living....
[ QUOTE ]
PS: I'm not an expert theorist nor a mathematician, but I believe most who claim the swings in limit are higher than no limit are basing this on the pretext that you will be playing a tight and conservative game. However, a tight and conservative game will not maximize your profits over the long term and definitely will be more profitable online than at your typical B&M. [/ QUOTE ] That is flat out wrong. Tight and conservative is the best way to make the most possible at 99.999% of games. Gone are the days of "doyle's style", or whatever you cats call it.

[/ QUOTE ] Doyle's style? No, that isnt the issue here. If you are in the BB with a suited ace, and an early player makes it $10 to go, 6 players call, do you see a flop? I do. There is now $81 in the pot (SB folded) and the flop comes ace and 2 of your suit. Original bettor goes all in with his obvious A/K or A/Q. Do you call? I do. This hand and similar ones come up 5-20 times per session at 1/2 NL. You want to tell me that a 5/10 limit game has bigger swings than this? I dont buy it.
