Default Re: Anyone else hate limit?

Since you said 'most', let me retort.

Id say most NL players love that they can
A) Make bets in the relation to the pot size
B) Play pots heads up.
C) Bust a fish in one glorious hand
many more.....


[/ QUOTE ]

A) Many don't count the pot down to even know what's actually in the pot. However, I do agree with this for good players at N/L. But definitely not most.

B) Many like HU pots because they are more concerned with winning pots than playing well. Hence the 'protecting hands' arguments I hear at the limit tables.

C) I'd rather bust a fish over many hands as that will usually garner more cash from him in the long run.

That said, N/L is much different from limit. But I see alot of players going to N/L for the wrong reasons.

I should of said most winning NL players. You are absolutely right. There are many, many NL donkeys out there.

However, I think you inturpret the purpose of my post as to argue that NL > Limit. This is not the case. I was saying there are plenty of winning NL players that do not like limit for the above reasons. And the poster should not make the generization that anyone who hates limit is a losing player.

I have nothing but respect for winning limit players, and the game of LEHE.

Ty for the response.
