Are there any pros who just know one game?
 
I hear there are ppl that are an expert in one game but they are not good at other games. For instance, some players are good at no limit but can't even beat limit holdem. Are there any pros that only play 1 game except no limit holdem?

I'm also talking about other games as well. Are there pros that only play say pot limit omaha or 7 card stud and that's all they know?

Yes, my bold aggressive moves don't work in non-unlimited hold-them games.

Are there any pros that only know one game and stick to it as their primarily source of income? For instance, Sam Farha is a great pot limit omaha player and Joe Cassidy is a great limit holdem player. Even i hear sometimes farha isn't that good in no limit from other posters.

Layne Flack only plays 2-7 lowball, and I think that he talks about trying to learn other games in this interview.

Theres hundreds, even thousands, of pro poker players whom you've never heard of who grind online or live and only play 1 game.

I asked Antonio Esfandiari this on UB one night and he said he only played NLH. I guess he could play PLH if he wanted to win bracelets too.

I heard that Flack's best game is eightball actually.
