Re: Which form of poker is the most mathematical?
I firmly believe limit poker to be the most mathematical in terms of how important math is to making the "correct" play. In limit it's all about expressed and implied odds with a little bit of what you're putting your opponent on.
NL does have a lot of math, but all that math you do may end up being completely meaningless due to a misread of your opponent's cards, or by bet size.
You can win at limit by making good mathmatical decisions time after time and firing away with those good hands. However, as many pros will say, to win at NL it's all about making a good call/fold in that one tough decision pot.
You win at limit by playing the odds, you win at No limit by playing the players.
