Default Re: NL players hold greater edge over lesser opponents than Limit play

I probably really wanted to get at why good players let themselves in for so much psychological brutality--bad beats are not fun and the energy deployed philosophizing about "in the long term..." and "over time..." etc. doesn't seem worth it to me anymore. I mean, why hate even a single second of your job if you don't have to? Even by the time I had moved "up" to 4-8 limit I considered the prospect of playing a 1-2 limit game akin to dental surgery without an anaesthetic.

If you dislike it that much, you probably shouldn't play. Seriously.

But there's a lot of truth to what you're saying. If I can play a game with more edge and less variance, I'm going to. Over the past couple of years I've been migrating from LHE to NLHE as my bread and butter for this reason.

But if people decide they want to play limit HORSE insntead, I'll learn that.
