Limit. You won't constantly live in fear of opponents making too many moves on you.

I switched to No Limit because I couldn't win at limit. I've lost hundreds at limit. I never made a consistent profit until going to No Limit. Are you saying that I can't teach myself when my TPTK is no good ? I just seem to have a problem folding marginal hands such as TPTK to raises on the flop and turn.

No but based on the posts you have made on the forum you do not have the dicipline or emotional stability to be a long term winner in the game, it may be you just post your bad beats or whatever but you are going to go bankrupt at some point.

As for what game to suggest, you need a game to increase your patience and dicipline, my first thought was limit holdem but suckouts happen big time there particulary at lower limits. So I am going to say Pot Limit Omaha, why because its a game of the nuts, either having them or having a hand that draws to the nuts, to win a low limits you need to peddle the nuts or draw to the nuts with odds, you need patience and dicipline if not you will get raped.

So my suggestions are limit holdem or PLO.
