You mean the same way that NL players think that they are better people for not playing Limit?

Yes, exactly.

Speaking as a former limit specialist, many uninformed NL players read Super/System and latch onto Doyle's comments about limit players not having "guts." Frankly, I think it's much harder to play limit well consistently over a long period of time.

I started playing Limit and know what you are thinking. I then dipped in FR NL, then 6 max.

Remember that the vast majority of players here aren't winning anything, and when they talk smack, they have no appreciation for the over-all game. When they say that Limit is easy, they probably never tried playing it. When anyone says that one form of poker is easier, they are insulting anyone who has spent years mastering that form of poker.

I could go on and on, but if one of the "cool kids" sits at you FR game, you will probably crush them.
