Re: Best line on the turn?

NL --> Limit players complain nobody folds, and they can't protect their hands because they haven't learned how to use the check-raise to chase out people.

This is somewhat true but I wouldn't say its a direct comparison to the phenomenon of limit players CRing too much in NL. The reason is NL players who make this complaint are showing more of a fundamental error in understanding WHY a winning player wins at limit hold'em. It's not a "hand protection" game, it's a value betting game. NL players miss easy value bets in limit all the time. Limit players tend to over-value bet where there is no value in NL but I think the first mistake is much worse. I think that's why good players at both games feel its easier to go from limit to NL, you already know how to hand read and value bet now you just have to temper it appropriately.
