Default Re: More money in Limit or NL?

you are not going to unbiased opinion from most players because most players are LHE players and most LHE players suck at NoLimit.

What I dont understand is from a purely financial viewpoint why anyone would play LHE over NL, the average winrate (BB/100) is much higher in NL.

Default Re: More money in Limit or NL?

I prefer Limit as I find the swings tend to be less. As a semi-new player this allows me to concentrate more on card issues over bankroll issues (a bad down swing and I'm more concerned with the pschylogical issues of bank roll management than playing aggressive).

I've played both to a degree and feel they are almost like two completely different games and require different skill sets. You should choose one that fits your personality type (meaning the learning curve will be less) and then learn the other when you have the basics of hold em down.

NL has far less variance and smaller swings than limit.
