Default Re: Why Limit?

There are limit bots out there that are crushing high stakes limit. The only bots out now for NL are shortstack bots for microlimits. To me, that says a lot about the game of limit compared to NL.

they are beating (not crushing) bad limit players heads up (there isnt a good full ring bot that is known about yet that plays high stakes games). Most good players can beat the bots, there are guys in this forum that actually hunt them down because they are easy pray.

back on topic - Why limit? Because if you ever want to become a good no limit player you need to play a lot of hands in a lot of tough situations, limit poker helps prepare you for that thought process. There are only a small handfull of great NL players who did not have a limit poker background first.Its a natural progression, in general you will only find the guys who rise to the cream of the crop as NL players (such as Aba) were limit players first.
